  • default for default data Vserver
    *
    and

  • dp-destination for Data Protection destination Vserver.

  • sync-source for MetroCluster source Vserver,

  • sync-destination for MetroCluster destination Vserver.

[-uuid <UUID>] - Vserver UUID

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver that match the specified UUID.

[-rootvolume <volume name>] - Root Volume

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that have the specified root volume.

[-aggregate <aggregate name>] - Aggregate

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that have their root volumes contained by the specified aggregate.

[-nisdomain <nis domain>] - NIS Domain

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that use the specified NIS domain.

[-rootvolume-security-style <security style>] - Root Volume Security Style

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that have the specified root-volume security style.

[-ldap-client <text>] - LDAP Client

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that use the specified LDAP client.

[-language <Language code>] - Default Volume Language Code

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that use the specified language. To determine the available languages, enter "`vserver show-language?` " at the clustershell command prompt and at the Vserver prompt.

[-snapshot-policy <snapshot policy>] - Snapshot Policy

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that have the specified Snapshot policy.

[-data-services <LIF Service Name>,…​] - Data Services

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that match the specified data services.

[-comment <text>] - Comment

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that match the specified comment.

[-quota-policy <text>] - Quota Policy

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that use the specified quota policy.

[-aggr-list <aggregate name>,…​] - List of Aggregates Assigned

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers to which the specified aggregate(s) are assigned for use.

[-max-volumes <unsigned32_or_unlimited>] - Limit on Maximum Number of Volumes allowed

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers on which the specified maximum volume count is configured.

[-admin-state {running|stopped|starting|stopping}] - Vserver Admin State

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that match the specified admin-state.

[-operational-state {running|stopped}] - Vserver Operational State

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that match the specified operational-state. This field determines the state of the Vserver LIFs. New LIFs created on a Vserver, which is in running state, will be operationally up and the LIFs created on a Vserver, which is in stopped state, will be operationally down.

[-operational-state-stopped-reason {sync destination and switchover is not done|cluster reboot is done|admin state stopped| dp destination not started}] - Vserver Operational State Stopped Reason

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers that are operationally stopped due to the specified reason. This field indicates the reason for the operational-state of the Vserver being stopped

[-allowed-protocols {nfs|cifs|fcp|iscsi|ndmp|nvme}] - Allowed Protocols

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vserver or Vservers on which the specified protocols are allowed to run.

[-disallowed-protocols {nfs|cifs|fcp|iscsi|ndmp|nvme}] - Disallowed Protocols

[-is-repository {true|false}] - Is Vserver with Infinite Volume

If this parameter is no longer supported.

[-qos-policy-group <text>] - QoS Policy Group

Display the Vservers that match the specified qos-policy-group.

A policy group defines measurable service level objectives (SLOs) that apply to the storage objects with which the policy group is associated. If you do not assign a policy group to a Vserver, the system will not monitor and control the traffic to it.

[-caching-policy <text>] - Caching Policy Name

Display the Vservers that match the specified caching-policy.

A caching policy defines the caching behavior of this Vserver at the Flash Cache level. If a caching policy is not assigned to this Vserver, the system uses the default cluster-wide policy. The available caching policies are:

  • none - Does not cache any user data or metadata blocks.

  • auto - Read caches all metadata and randomly read user data blocks, and write caches all randomly overwritten user data blocks.

  • meta - Read caches only metadata blocks.

  • random_read - Read caches all metadata and randomly read user data blocks.

  • random_read_write - Read caches all metadata, randomly read, and randomly written user data blocks.

  • all_read - Read caches all metadata, randomly read, and sequentially read user data blocks.

  • all_read_random_write - Read caches all metadata, randomly read, sequentially read, and randomly written user data.

  • all - Read caches all data blocks read and written. It does not do any write caching.

Default caching-policy is auto.

[-config-lock {true|false}] - Config Lock

This parameter specifies if the Vserver is locked or unlocked for modification. If the config-lock is set to true, then modifying the Vserver's configuration is not allowed.

[-ipspace <IPspace>] - IPspace Name

If this parameter is specified, the command displays information only about the Vservers that are assigned to the specified IPspace.

[-foreground {true|false}] - Foreground Process

This optionally specifies whether the Vserver show operation can be executed in the background. If nothing is specified, by default the Vserver show operation is executed in the foreground.

[-is-space-reporting-logical {true|false}] - Logical Space Reporting

This optionally specifies whether to report space logically on residing volumes. When space is reported logically, ONTAP reports the volume space such that all the physical space saved by the storage efficiency features are also as reported as used.

[-is-space-enforcement-logical {true|false}] - Logical Space Enforcement

This optionally specifies whether to perform logical space accounting on residing volumes. When space is enforced logically, ONTAP enforces volume settings such that all the physical space saved by the storage efficiency features will be calculated as used.
