Checking the status of QRadar Suite Software deployments

The check_status action runs a status check of all deployments on IBM Security QRadar® Suite Software. It outputs any errors that might exist.

Before you begin

To access the check_status action, you must install the command line interface (CLI) utility cpctl from the cp-serviceability pod. For more information, see Installing the cpctl utility to access support actions.

Procedure

To use the check_status action, run the following command:

cpctl diagnostics check_status --token $(oc whoami -t)

Example

Based on the following example, one of the deployments (DRC) failed and it needs attention.

cpctl diagnostics check_status --token "$(oc whoami -t)"
