Using the Command Line to Check Status

Two commands, metadb(1M) and metastat(1M), check the status of DiskSuite objects.

# metadb [-s setname] [-i]

In this command,

-s `setname`	Specifies the name of the diskset on which the `metadb` command will work.
-i	Displays a legend that describes the status flags.

# metastat [-s setname] [-p] [-t] [object]

In this command,

`-s` `setname`	Specifies the name of the diskset on which `metastat` will work.
`-p`	Displays the status in a format similar to that of the `md.tab` file.
`-t`	Displays the time of the last state change.
object	Is the name of the stripe, concatenation, concatenated stripe, mirror, RAID5 metadevice, trans metadevice, or hot spare pool. If you omit a specific object, the status of all metadevices and hot spare pools is displayed.
