[chef-dev] Re: Any plan for CHEF-2627 (Knife SSH should return exit code based on whether or not ssh command is successful or not)

BIG +1 on this.

I'm using knife ssh to execute maintenance commands in parallel. Diagnostic 
output is hard to miss when there are many machines. Knife should at the very 
least exit a non-zero status, and optimally print at the end of the session 
list of machines with non-zero exit status (and the respective statuses).
