Show Primary Bias Status

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

Description

The snapmirror mediator primary-bias show command shows the status of primary-bias. This command is applicable when mediator status is shown as unreachable/misconfigured from both primary and secondary cluster.

This will also show the state corresponding to each CG endpoint residing on the given cluster. Slave CG endpoints will show the state of "Failover disabled". Master CG endpoints will show the state of Primary-bias activation.

The status of primary-bias can be one of the following. + primary-bias-activated - represents the state that allows master endpoints to assume the I/O serving authority + primary-bias-not-activated - represents the state that mediator is reachable from primary and secondary clusters and IO serving authority set to default + mediator-engaged-for-failover - represents the state that mediator is engaged and Failover on slave endpoints is possible + mediator-disengaged-for-failover - represents the setting of the intermediate state preventing Failover on slave endpoints of a CG +
