Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Reviewing Cluster and Package States with the cmviewcl Command
Chapter 380
NODE_TYPE STATUS SWITCHING NAME
Primary up enabled ftsys9 (current)
Alternate up enabled ftsys10
PACKAGE STATUS STATE AUTO_RUN NODE
pkg2 up running disabled ftsys9
Policy_Parameters:
POLICY_NAME CONFIGURED_VALUE
Failover min_package_node
Failback manual
Script_Parameters:
ITEM STATUS NAME MAX_RESTARTS RESTARTS
Service up service2.1 0 0
Subnet up 15.13.168.0 0 0
Node_Switching_Parameters:
NODE_TYPE STATUS SWITCHING NAME
Primary up enabled ftsys10
Alternate up enabled ftsys9 (current)
NODE STATUS STATE
ftsys10 up running
Network_Parameters:
INTERFACE STATUS PATH NAME
PRIMARY up 28.1 lan0
STANDBY up 32.1 lan1
Now pkg2 is running on node ftsys9. Note that it is still disabled from
switching.
Status After Package Switching is Enabled
The following command changes package status back to Package
Switching Enabled:
# cmmodpkg -e pkg2
The output of the cmviewcl command is now as follows:
CLUSTER STATUS
example up
NODE STATUS STATE
ftsys9 up running
