Reviewing Cluster and Package Status
Chapter 7322
• unknown - Serviceguard could not determine the state at the time
cmviewcl was run.
Package Switching Attributes cmviewcl shows the following
package switching information:
• AUTO_RUN: Can be enabled or disabled. For failover packages,
enabled means that the package starts when the cluster starts, and
Serviceguard can switch the package to another node in the event of
failure.
For system multi-node packages, enabled means an instance of the
package can start on a new node joining the cluster (disabled means
it will not).
• (Switching for a node): For failover packages, enabled means that
the package can switch to the specified node. disabled means that
the package cannot switch to the specified node until the node is
enabled to run the package via the cmmodpkg command.
Every failover package is marked enabled or disabled for each node
that is either a primary or adoptive node for the package.
For multi-node packages, node switching disabled means the
package cannot start on that node.
Service Status Services have only status, as follows:
• Up. The service is being monitored.
• Down. The service is not running. It may have halted or failed.
• Uninitialized. The service is included in the cluster configuration,
but it was not started with a run command in the master control
script.
• Unknown.
Network Status The network interfaces have only status, as follows:
• Up.
• Down.
• Unknown. Serviceguard cannot determine whether the interface is up
or down. A standby interface has this status.
