Determining the clusters and applications participating in workload placement

A multicluster administrator, or a user with the SMC_CLUSTER_VIEW or SMC_CLUSTER_CONTROL permission can view a list of clusters currently participating in workload placement, and view the applications within the cluster that are also participating.

About this task

You can determine the clusters and applications participating in workload placement using the multicluster management console or using the command line.

Procedure

A multicluster administrator can determine cluster and application participation using the multicluster management console, by following these steps:
1. Click System > Multicluster Settings > Workload Placement.
  
  You can see the total number of clusters participating in workload placement, listed by name. All clusters with a check mark next to their name are currently participating in workload placement.
  
  Any cluster listed that does not have a check mark is a cluster waiting to be added as a participant.
2. Select a cluster name to see the applications in the cluster that are currently participating in workload placement.
  
  All applications with a check mark next to their name are currently participating in workload placement.
  
  Any application listed that does not have a check mark is an application that you can add to participate. Select the check box next to an application name to add it as an application for workload placement for the selected cluster.
3. Click Apply.
A multicluster administrator can determine cluster and application participation by using the command line. Follow these steps:
- To list the clusters participating in workload placement, run:
```
smcadmin cluster listplacement
```
- To list the application registered to the federation cluster, run:
```
smcadmin app list
```
- To list the applications participating in workload placement, run:
```
smcadmin app listplacement
```
For more information about the smcadmin command, see smcadmin.
A multicluster user with SMC_APP_CONTROL permission can view a list of applications participating in workload placement by using the command line. Run:
```
smcadmin app listplacement
```
