Sun Cluster 2.2 Cluster Volume Manager Guide

2.2.6 The vxdctl Command

The vxdctl utility manages some aspects of the volume configuration daemon, vxconfigd. The -c option can be used to request cluster information. You can use vxdctl as follows to determine whether vxconfigd is enabled and/or running:


vxdctl -c mode

Depending on the circumstances, the output is similar to the following:


mode: enabled: cluster active - MASTER

mode: enabled: cluster active - SLAVE

mode: enabled: cluster inactive

mode: enabled: cluster active - role not set 

Note -

If vxconfigd is disabled, no cluster information is displayed.
