Issue with exports in GNU parallel

[Pradeep Patra]

Hi all,

  I am trying to write a program which will connect to all the client machines once by ssh and run a particular tool using different user credentials in that single connection.

I thought of writing the program as below. But I am getting an error "abc not found" and the test fails. I guess there is a Bug for this already.

Is there any other way I can perform this task. Any example will really help to achieve this kind of task.

Regards

Pradeep.
