Add node names to a list of nodes for mmpmon processing

The nlist add (node list add) request is used to add node names to a list of nodes for the mmpmon command to collect their data. The node names are separated by blanks.

Table 1 describes the keywords for the nlist add response, in the order that they appear in the output. These keywords are used only when the mmpmon command is started with the -p flag.

Table 1. Keywords and values for the mmpmon nlist add response
Keyword Description
_n_ IP address of the node that is processing the node list. This is the address by which GPFS knows the node.
_nn_ The hostname that corresponds to the IP address (the _n_ value).
_req_ The action requested. In this case, the value is add.
_rc_ Indicates the status of the operation.
_t_ Indicates the current time of day in seconds (absolute seconds since Epoch (1970)).
_tu_ Microseconds part of the current time of day.
_c_ The number of nodes in the user supplied list.
_ni_ Node name input. A user-supplied node name from the offered list of names.
_nx_ Node name conversion. The preferred GPFS name for the node.
_nxip_ Node name converted IP address. The preferred GPFS IP address for the node.
_did_ The number of nodes names considered valid and processed by the requests.
_nlc_ The number of nodes in the node list now (after all processing).

If the nlist add request is issued when no node list exists, it is handled as if it were an nlist new request.
