Check the network connections between partner nodes

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the advanced privilege level.

Description

The metrocluster configuration-settings connection check command checks the settings of a MetroCluster over IP configuration.

This command is used for MetroCluster configurations that are connected through IP links.

Parameters

[-v, -verbose <true>] - Enable Detailed Output (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter enables verbose mode.

[-p, -ping <true>] - Check Ping Response Only (privilege: advanced)

Specify this paramter to perform reachability checks.

[-t, -throughput <true>] - Check Throughput Only (privilege: advanced)

Specify this parameter to perform throughput checks.

{ [-z, -tos <Hex String>] - Type of Service for Pings (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the value for the Type of Service field to be used for ping or throughput checks. If specified, the ping and throughput checks will be limited to only the specified value and not cycle through all the pre-defined TOS values for those checks.

| [-D, -dscp <text>] - DSCP for Throughput or Pings (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the DSCP value to be used for ping or throughput checks. The value can be specified as a number, hexadecimal string or as a symbolic name. For example, "32", "0x20" and "CS4" all refer to the same value. If specified, the pinng and throughput checks will be limited to only the specified value and not cycle through all the pre-defined DSCP values for these checks.

[-E, -ecn <integer>] - ECN for Pings (privilege: advanced) }

This optional parameter specifies the ECN value to be used for ping checks.

[-c, -count <integer>] - Ping Count (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the number of ping requests to send for each destination. The default value is 1.

[-i, -interval <double>] - Ping Interval (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the interval to use between pings. The default value is 1 second.

[-S, -source <IP Address>] - Source IP Address (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the source IP address to use for ping or throughput check.

[-destination <IP Address>] - Destination IP Address (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the destination IP address to use for ping or throughput checks.

[-role <Roles of MetroCluster Nodes>] - Partner Role (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the partner role to use for ping and througput checks. Only the nodes with the matching role will be used.

[-I, -port {<netport>|<ifgrp>}] - Interface Port Name (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the port to use for ping and througput checks.

Examples

The following example shows the output for the check command in MetroCluster over IP configurations:
clusA::*> metrocluster configuration-settings connection check
[Job 68] Job succeeded: Connect is successful.

Begin connection check.
Start checking the partner cluster.
    Check partner cluster: PASS.
Start checking the configuration settings.
    Check configuration settings: PASS.
Start pinging the network endpoints from cluster "clusA".
    Ping network endpoints: PASS.
Start pinging the network endpoints from cluster "clusB".
    Ping network endpoints: PASS.
Start checking the network MTU sizes from cluster "clusA".
    Check network MTU sizes: PASS.
Start checking the network MTU sizes from cluster "clusB".
    Check network MTU sizes: PASS.
Start checking the network subnets from cluster "clusA".
    Check network subnets: PASS.
Start checking the network subnets from cluster "clusB".
    Check network subnets: PASS.
Start checking the storage daemons on cluster "clusA".
    Check storage daemons: PASS.
Start checking the storage daemons on cluster "clusB".
    Check storage daemons: PASS.
End of connection check.
