        execute_dcp

        This is the main driver routine for an instance of the dcp command.
        Given the options configured in the $options hash table, the routine
        configures the execution of the dcp instance, executes the remote copy
        commands and processes the output from each target.

        Arguments:
			$options - options hash table describing dcp configuration options

        Returns:
        	The number of targets that failed to execute a remote copy command

        Globals:
        	None

        Error:

        fork_fanout_dcp

        Main process forking routine for an instance of the dcp command.
        The routine creates forked processes of a remote copy command up to
        the configured fanout value.  Then output from each process is
        processed.  The number of currently forked processes is consistently
        maintained up to the configured fanout value

        Arguments:
			$options - options hash table describing dsh configuration options
        	$resolved_targets - hash table of resolved targets and target properties
        	$forked_process - hash table of process information keyed by target name
        	$pid_targets - hash table of target names keyed by process ID
        	$outfh_targets - hash table of STDOUT pipe handles keyed by target name
        	$errfh_targets - hash table of STDERR pipe handles keyed by target name
        	$targets_waiting - array of targets pending remote execution
        	$targets_active - hash table of currently active targets with output possibly available

        Returns:
        	None

        Globals:
        	None

        Error:
        	None

        fork_fanout_dsh

        Main process forking routine for an instance of the dsh command.
        The routine creates forked processes of a remote shell command up to
        the configured fanout value.  Then output from each process is
        processed.  The number of currently forked processes is consistently
        maintained up to the configured fanout value

        Arguments:
			$options - options hash table describing dsh configuration options
        	$resolved_targets - hash table of resolved targets and target properties
        	$forked_process - hash table of process information keyed by target name
        	$pid_targets - hash table of target names keyed by process ID
        	$outfh_targets - hash table of STDOUT pipe handles keyed by target name
        	$errfh_targets - hash table of STDERR pipe handles keyed by target name
        	$targets_waiting - array of targets pending remote execution
        	$targets_active - hash table of currently active targets with output possibly available

        Returns:
        	None

        Globals:
        	None

        Error:
        	None

        stream_error

        For a given list of targets with output available, this routine writes
        output from the targets STDERR pipe handles directly to STDERR as soon
        as it is available from the target

        Arguments:
            $options - options hash table describing dsh configuration options
        	$resolved_targets - hash table of resolved targets and target properties
        	$targets_active - hash table of currently active targets with output possibly available
        	$targets_finished - list of targets with all output processed and have completed execution
        	$targets_failed - list of targets that have unsuccessfully executed
        	$targets_buffered - hash table of buffers with output from active targets
        	$pid_targets - hash table of target names keyed by process ID
        	$forked_process - hash table of process information keyed by target name
        	$errfh_targets - hash table of STDERR pipe handles keyed by target name
        	$error_buffers - hash table of STDERR buffers keyed by target name
			$error_files - list of error file handles where error output is to be written
			$select_err_fhs - list of currently available STDERR pipe handles

        Returns:
        	None

        Globals:
        	None

        Error:
        	None

        resolve_nodes_hash

        Builds the resolved nodes hash.
        Does not do much anymore because we removed address resolution from
        xdsh and just let ssh do it.  Stayed to preserve the logic of the old
        code.
        Does check if the Management Node is part of the node range and sets
        localhost if it is.  The MN must be defined in nodelist and with 
        nodetype.nodetype=mn.

        Arguments:
       	$options - options hash table describing dsh configuration options
       	$resolved_targets - hash table of resolved properties, keyed by target name

       run_rsync_postscripts 

        This executes the postscript file on the nodes where
	    the corresponding rsync file was updated
        These are the scripts after EXECUTE: in the syncfile
        rsync returns a list of files that have been updated
        in the form   hostname: <full file path>
        For example:  node1: tmp/test/file1  ( yes it leaves the first / off)
        This routine must match that list to the input list of postscripts.
        If there is a match, for example
        The postscript file is /tmp/test/file1.post  and tmp/test/file1 was 
        updated, then it builds a xdsh command to the node to run  
        /tmp/test/file1.post.
        On the service node, the file will be in $syncdir/tmp/test/file1.post.
        Also the routine must preserve all other messages returned from rsync, 
        to return to the admin.  It will remove the messages that the files 
        were updated, that is all of from hostname: <full file path>.	
       Input: the output from the xdcp rsync run
            : @::postscripts  to run

        Comments:
          Needs to remove the lines from rsync that are return to let
          me know files were updated from the output to determine which 
          postscripts to run and leave any other messages 
          to return to the admin.

      runDsh_api

  This subroutine provides a concise interface to run remote command on multiple nodes.
  Arguments:
      $optionRef:
         Specifies a hash in which the dsh options are provided
      $exitCode:
        Normally, if there is an error running the cmd,
		it will display the error msg
        and exit with the cmds exit code, unless exitcode is given one of the
        following values:
             0:     display error msg, DO NOT exit on error, but set
                $::RUNCMD_RC to the exit code.
            -1:     DO NOT display error msg and DO NOT exit on error, but set
	                   $::RUNCMD_RC to the exit code.
            -2:    DO the default behavior (display error msg and exit with cmds
                exit code.
        number > 0:    Display error msg and exit with the given code
        $refoutput:
          if refoutput is true, then the output will be returned as a
		  reference to an array for efficiency.
  Example:
      my @outref = xCAT::DSHCLI->runDsh_api(\%options, -2);
