Create a script using the script.new() command
Use the
script.new()
function to copy an existing script from the local node to a remote node. This
enables parallel script execution.
You can create a script with the
script.new()
function using the command:
scriptVar
= script.new(
code, name
)
Where:
scriptVar
= Name of the variable created when the script is loaded into the runtime environment
code
= Content of the script
name
= Name that is added to the
script.user.scripts
table
