Table 8–4 Service Status
Service Status Description
running
The service resources are configured and available on the cluster system
that owns the service. The
running state is a persistent state. From this
state, a service can enter the
stopping state (for example, if the preferred
member rejoins the cluster)
disabled
The service has been disabled, and does not have an assigned owner. The
disabled state is a persistent state. From this state, the service can enter
the
starting state (if a user initiates a request to start the service).
starting
The service is in the process of being started. The starting state is a
transient state. The service remains in the
starting state until the service
start succeeds or fails. From this state, the service can enter the
running
state (if the service start succeeds), the stopped state (if the service stop
fails), or the
error state (if the status of the service resources cannot
be determined).
stopping
The service is in the process of being stopped. The stopping state is a
transient state. The service remains in the stopping state until the service
stop succeeds or fails. From this state, the service can enter the
stopped
state (if the service stop succeeds), the running state (if the service stop
failed and the service can be started).
stopped
The service is not running on any cluster system, does not have an
assigned owner, and does not have any resources configured on a cluster
system. The
stopped state is a persistent state. From this state, the
service can enter the
disabled state (if a user initiates a request to disable
the service), or the
starting state (if the preferred member joins the
cluster).
To display a snapshot of the current cluster status, invoke the clustat utility. For example:
