Viewing server information
The ExDS> show server command provides information on the state of servers:
Table 1 explains server states:
Table 1 Server states
DescriptionState
The power to the server has just been turned on, and the server is booting.
This is a temporary state. If the server does not respond after three minutes,
it will be marked with the status down.
booting
The server has not responded for 20 seconds. This can happen if the server
is very busy
not-resonding
The server has not responded for more than 40 seconds. If this persists, it
usually indicates that the server is hung up or is failing.
down
The server has completed the booting process, is a member of the Matrix
system, and is running normally.
running
The server is in the standby state (that is, power to CPU is off, auxiliary power
to the iLO remains on).
power-off
The server has not yet been installed.
not-installed
The server is running but is still in the process of being installed. If the install
process is complete, then there is a problem. See Troubleshooting.
not-configured
The server blade in this bay position has been moved from another bay in
this system, from another HP ExDS9100, or is not an HP ExDS9100 server
blade. This status can also briefly occur when a failed blade has been failed
and replaced, but it should change to running as soon as the server completes
the boot process.
blade-swapped
The Matrix states are as follows:
• Joined—The server is running normally and is a member of the Matrix. The server can mount PSFS
filesystems and host virtual hosts.
• Not-joined—The server is not a current member of the Matrix
Servers have two SFF disk drives. The “system” disk is actually a logical disk made up by mirroring
across these two physical drives. The show server command shows the status of both the physical
and logical drives.
