Display virtual machine instance information per node

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

Description

The system node virtual-machine instance show command displays virtual machine information. With this information you can determine the relationship between a Data ONTAP node and its associated virtual machine instance running within a cloud provider. Several other details about the virtual machine can be extracted as well, such as the cloud provider account ID to which it belongs. To filter command output, specify any number of optional fields listed below.

Parameters

{ [-fields <fieldname>,…​]

If you specify the -fields <fieldname>, …​ parameter, the command output also includes the specified field or fields. You can use '-fields ?' to display the fields to specify.

| [-instance ] }

If you specify the -instance parameter, the command displays detailed information about all fields.

[-node {<nodename>|local}] - Node

This optional parameter represents the name of the Data ONTAP node running in a virtual machine for which information is to be displayed. If this parameter is not specified, the command displays information about all nodes in the cluster.

[-instance-id <text>] - ID of This Instance

A cloud provider-supplied unique instance ID for this virtual machine, for example "i-a9d42f89" or "db00a7755a5e4e8a8fe4b19bc3b330c3.1".

[-account-id <text>] - ID of This Account

The cloud provider-associated account ID for this virtual machine. This parameter is usually associated with a cloud provider login ID and password.

[-image-id <text>] - ID Of the Image in Use on This Instance

The image ID installed on this virtual machine instance. It identifies a pre-defined template of a computing device's software environment. It contains the operating system and can also include application software, such as database servers, middleware, and web servers. In this case, the ID refers to an image that contains everything required to run Data ONTAP in the cloud.

[-instance-type <text>] - Specifies System Attributes and Use Cost

A specification (as defined by the cloud provider) that defines the memory, CPU, storage capacity and usage cost for a virtual machine instance. Some instance types are designed for standard applications, whereas others are designed for CPU-intensive or memory-intensive applications and so on.

[-region <text>] - Set of Resources in the Same Geographic Area

A named set of resources in the same geographical area. For example "us-east-1" might be the name for a collection of compute and storage resources on the eastern coast of the United States. Typically, a region contains multiple availability zones.

[-version <text>] - Version of This VM Instance Information

The version of the Instance Metadata or Agent Wire Protocol as defined by the cloud provider.

[-availability-zone <text>] - Distinct Location within a Region

A distinct location within a region that is insulated from failures in other availability zones. It provides low-latency network connectivity to other availability zones in the same region.

[-primary-ip <text>] - Primary IP Address Assigned to this Instance

The primary IP address assigned to this virtual machine instance.

[-deployment-id <text>] - Deployment ID of This Instance

A cloud provider-supplied unique deployment ID for this virtual machine, for example "2831c724-97ca-4395-b8d3-a65c2a65b502".

[-fault-domain <integer>] - Fault Domain of This Instance

A cloud provider-assigned numerical fault domain ID for this virtual machine within an Availability Set.

[-update-domain <integer>] - Update Domain of This Instance

A cloud provider-assigned numerical update domain ID for this virtual machine within an Availability Set.

[-provider <text>] - Provider on which this instance is running.

The provider on which this instance is running.
