User commands allow you to execute arbitrary shell commands from Zenoss Core. A user command is executed in its appropriate container rather than the
remote device unless the command explicitly uses SSH to connect to the remote device.
You can define and run user commands on a device or organizer (device
class, system, group, or location). You also can define commands globally. The User
Commands menu bar shows the various functions that can be used in the User Commands screen.
See the following sections for detailed instructions on adding and running user commands on
specific devices or groups of devices.
