cluster states



QHA
The standard tool for cluster monitoring is clstat, which comes along with HACMP. Clstat is rather slow with its updates, and sometimes the required clinfo deamon needs restarting in order to get it operational, so this is, well, not good. There's a script which is a lot better. It is written by HACMP guru Alex Abderrazag. This script shows you the correct HACMP status, along with adapter and volume group information. It works fine on HACMP 5.2 until 6.1. You can download it here: qha. This is version 8.03 (latest update: 25/04/2007). For the latest version, check www.lpar.co.uk.

This tiny but effective tool accepts two flags:
  •   -n (show network info)
  •   -v (show shared online vg)
So, you can run # qha or # qha -v or # qha -n or # qha -nv. 

A description of the possible cluster states:
  • ST_INIT: cluster configured and down
  • ST_JOINING: node joining the cluster
  • ST_VOTING: Inter-node decision state for an event
  • ST_RP_RUNNING: cluster running recovery program
  • ST_BARRIER: clstrmgr waiting at the barrier statement
  • ST_CBARRIER: clstrmgr is exiting recovery program
  • ST_UNSTABLE: cluster unstable
  • NOT_CONFIGURED: HA installed but not configured
  • RP_FAILED: event script failed
  • ST_STABLE: cluster services are running with managed resources (stable cluster) or cluster services have been "forced" down with resource groups potentially in the UNMANAGED state (HACMP 5.4 only)
