Hi Laura,

Basically its the same, no difference if i keep su user1...
i am getting the desired output with a single host, but if i keep for loop for multiple hosts, remaining are skipped saying as below:

pexpect.TIMEOUT: Timeout exceeded.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

pexpect.TIMEOUT: Timeout exceeded.
<pexpect.pxssh.pxssh object at 0x7f22d2b838d0>

only 1st host is getting executed. how to control child.logout() and make for loop continue...
