Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator"s Guide (5900-1738, April 2011)
Evaluating the state of CVM ports
CVM kernel (vxio driver) uses port ‘v’ for kernel messaging and port ‘w’ for
vxconfigd communication between the cluster nodes. The following command
displays the state of CVM ports:
# gabconfig -a | egrep "Port [vw]"
Verifying if CVM is running in an SFCFS cluster
You can use the following options to verify whether CVM is up or not in an SFCFS
cluster.
The following output is displayed on a node that is not a member of the cluster:
# vxdctl -c mode
mode: enabled: cluster inactive
# vxclustadm -v nodestate
state: out of cluster
On the master node, the following output is displayed:
# vxdctl -c mode
mode: enabled: cluster active - MASTER
master: galaxy
On the slave nodes, the following output is displayed:
# vxdctl -c mode
mode: enabled: cluster active - SLAVE
master: nebula
The following command lets you view all the CVM nodes at the same time:
# vxclustadm nidmap
Name CVM Nid CM Nid State
galaxy 0 0 Joined: Master
nebula 1 1 Joined: Slave
Verifying CVM membership state
The state of CVM can be verified as follows:
# vxclustadm -v nodestate
state: joining
