essstoragequickcheck command

Quickly checks the attached configuration.

Synopsis


essstoragequickcheck -N NodeList [ --component ComponentList ]
                     [ --prefix Prefix ] [ --suffix Suffix ]
                     [ -h | --help ]

Availability

Available with IBM Storage Scale System.

Description

The essstoragequickcheck command is used to perform a high level check of the storage connectivity and configuration. It is run from the management server node (EMS).

Parameters

-N NodeList
Specifies a comma separated list of nodes.
--component ComponentList
Provides a component list to specify the scope of check. The options are as follows:
  • server - to check I/O server node
  • adapter - to check installed network and storage adapters
  • storage - to check attached enclosures and disks
--prefix Prefix
Provides a host name prefix. Prefix is used with NodeList to generate node names where the check is run. Use = between --prefix and value if the value starts with a -.
--suffix Suffix
Provides a host name suffix. Suffix is used with NodeList to generate node names where the check is run. For example, with a node list of gssio1,gssio2 and prefix A- and suffix -ib, node names A-gssio1-ib and A-gssio2-ib will be used to run the test. The newly formed node name must be resolvable to the corresponding IP address. Use = between --suffix and value if the value starts with -.
-h | --help
Displays usage information about this command and exits.

Exit status

0
Successful completion.
nonzero
A failure has occurred.

Security

You must have root authority to run the essstoragequickcheck command.
