Paramiko: ssh.exec_command to collect output says open channel in response
Question: I have python script with paramiko and ssh somewhat as below

    
    
    import paramiko
    
    # setup ssh connection this works. no problem.
    ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()
    ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
    conn = ssh.connect(MACHINEIP, username=ROOTUSER, password=ROOTUSER_PASSWORD, port=22)
    
    # This first ssh exec works perfect. 
    (sshin1, sshout1, ssherr1) = ssh.exec_command(cmd1)
    
    # When I print the output of 2nd and 3rd ssh exec, I get output saying of channel open
    (sshin2, sshout2, ssherr2) = ssh.exec_command(cmd2)
    print sshout2
    (sshin3, sshout3, ssherr3) = ssh.exec_command(cmd3)
    print sshout3
    

Channel open messages in output when exec_command is used more than once to
collect output:

    
    
    <paramiko.ChannelFile from <paramiko.Channel 2 (open) window=2097152 
       -> <paramiko.Transport at 0x1d42bd0L (cipher aes128-ctr, 128 bits) 
    (active; 1 open channel(s))>>>
    
    <paramiko.ChannelFile from <paramiko.Channel 6 (open) window=2097152 
       -> <paramiko.Transport at 0x1d42bd0L (cipher aes128-ctr, 128 bits) 
    (active; 2 open channel(s))>>>
    

**How can I close this open channel?** Or any solution on this? I am using
python 2.7.


Answer: Should have used as `sshout.read` and rather I used `sshout` only while
printing.
