Check Server Status with respect to Server Cluster
You can check if a server is part of a server cluster using the cluster show status command. When
a server is part of a server cluster, you can find out whether a server is a parent server or a child server
using the cluster show status command.
You can execute this command on a server that may or may not be in a server cluster, that is, you can
execute this command on any active server.
To check the status of a server, do the following.
1.
Login to the server command line interface of the server with "config" user credentials
2. Execute the command cluster show status on the command line. The status of the server is
returned by the command.
Refer to the screenshots below for different server statuses.
The following is a screenshot of the command executed on a child server.
The following is a screenshot of the command executed on a parent server.
For instructions on mounting the child servers and managing them from AirTight Management Console of
the parent server, refer to Manage Child Servers from Parent Server in Server Cluster
.
Inherit Policy from Parent Server
When a server cluster is created and a child server is mounted on a mount point, the child server retains
the policies that were previously applied to it. It does not inherit the parent server policies, by default. If
you want to apply the parent server policies to child servers, you must navigate to the individual policy
and inherit the policy from the parent server.
The following policies are location specific and they cannot be inherited.
