4.1.0 HP PolyServe Software command reference guide (T5392-96071, October 2010)

mxsanconf.exe – configure FC switches
Synopsis
bin\mxsanconf <FC-switches>
Description
In general, this command should not be run directly.
If a matrix is configured to use fabric fencing, the mxsanconf command must be
successfully run on each node before Matrix Server is started. The command configures
the list of FibreChannel switches that will be managed by Matrix Server and creates
or updates the files psSAN.cfg and FCswitches in the directory
%SystemDrive%Program Files\PolyServe\MatrixServer\conf.
<FC-switch> is either the name or IP address of a switch to be managed. All
switches to be configured must be specified in the same command. The node must
be unfenced when the command is run. If the <switches> parameter is not specified,
the command uses the FC switches listed in the FCswitches file (if the file exists).
mxsanlk.exe – display status of SAN locks
Synopsis
tools\mxsanlk
Description
Matrix Server uses a set of disk-based data structures called SANlocks to protect
filesystem integrity. If a problem causes a cluster to split into two or more network
partitions, the SANlocks ensure that only one of the resulting network partitions has
access to the SAN. Each SANlock is stored in a membership partition. Before a
cluster can begin accessing the SAN, it must first acquire a majority of the SANlocks.
The SANlocks are acquired in order.
mxsanlk displays the status of the SANlock stored in each membership partition. It
can be used to determine whether any of the membership partitions need to be
repaired. Also, if a network partition occurs, mxsanlk can be used to determine
which network partition has control of the SAN. Following is some sample output.
The command was issued on host 99.10.30.3. The SDMP administrator is the
administrator for the cluster to which the host belongs. There are three membership
partitions.
