NAME | SYNOPSIS | DESCRIPTION | OPTIONS | NOTES | SEE ALSO
check_host is called from the bringup(1M) script to check whether the domain specified by the environment variable SUNW_HOSTNAME is up. If all configured processors are running the operating system, check_host sees the domain as up, displays the message Host is UP, and returns a status 0. If any configured processors are not running the operating system, check_host considers the domain down, displays Host is DOWN, and returns a status 1.
The following option is supported:
(Quiet Mode) Report the exit status, but do not echo any information to stdout.
Processors are configured by hpost(1M), which is run by bringup(1M).
The bringup(1M) command does not execute if the domain is up. bringup -f overrides this safety feature.
