11.9.3. Accessing a Specific Gear
As mentioned earlier, a secure shell environment connection is made to the application's primary gear by default. However, a specific gear can be accessed for debugging gear problems in a scalable application. The following instructions describe how to access a gear with the gear's ID and SSH URL.
Procedure 11.2. To Access a Specific Gear:
- Determine the gear's ID and SSH URL with the following command:
$
rhc app show App_Name --gears
Example 11.11. Viewing Application Gears
$
rhc app show automobile --gears

and its SSH URL is519b0fd02587c84b860002d8@519b0fd02587c84b860002d8-automobile.example.com
. - Open a secure shell environment to the desired gear with the gear's SSH URL:
$
ssh 519b0fd02587c84b860002d8@519b0fd02587c84b860002d8-automobile.example.com
