Memb ers St at u s Descrip t io n
Memb er
The node is part of the cluster.
Note: A node can be a member of a cluster; however, the node may be
inactive and incapable of running services. For example, if
rgmanager
is
not running on the node, but all other cluster software components are
running in the node, the node appears as a Member in the Clu st er
St at u s T o o l.
Dead The node is unable to participate as a cluster member. The most basic
cluster software is not running on the node.
T ab le 6 .2. Services St at u s
Services St at u s Descrip t io n
St art ed The service resources are configured and available on the cluster system
that owns the service.
Pen d in g The service has failed on a member and is pending start on another
member.
Disab led The service has been disabled, and does not have an assigned owner. A
disabled service is never restarted automatically by the cluster.
St o p p ed The service is not running; it is waiting for a member capable of starting
the service. A service remains in the stopped state if autostart is disabled.
Failed The service has failed to start on the cluster and cannot successfully stop
the service. A failed service is never restarted automatically by the cluster.
