Monitoring Cluster Status

You can use the shaman top and shaman stat commands to monitor the overall status of a cluster and cluster resources. The shaman stat command shows a snapshot of the current cluster status and clustering resources while shaman top displays a dynamic real-time view of the cluster. The following shows an example output of the shaman stat command:

# shaman stat

Cluster 'pcs1'

Nodes: 3

Resources: 8

NODE_IP STATUS RESOURCES

M 10.30.24.176 Active 0 CT, 0 VM, 1 ISCSI

* 10.30.25.33 Active 1 CT, 3 VM, 1 ISCSI

10.30.26.26 Active 0 CT, 0 VM, 2 ISCSI

CT ID STATE STATUS OWNER_IP PRIORITY

101 stopped Active 10.30.25.33 0

VM NAME STATE STATUS OWNER_IP PRIORITY

vm1 stopped Active 10.30.25.33 0

vm2 running Active 10.30.25.33 0

vm3 stopped Active 10.30.25.33 0

ISCSI ID STATE STATUS OWNER_IP PRIORITY

iqn.2014-04.com.pstorage:ps1 running Active 10.30.24.176 0

iqn.2014-04.com.pstorage:ps2 running Active 10.30.25.33 0

iqn.2014-04.com.pstorage:ps3 running Active 10.30.26.26 0

The table below explains all output fields:

Field Name	Description
Cluster	Name of the cluster. The "M" next to the server denotes that the server is the main server in the cluster (called the master server), and the asterisk (*) indicates the server where the `shaman stat` command was executed.
Nodes	Number of servers with enabled HA support in the cluster.
Resources	Number of resources `shaman` keeps control of.
NODE_IP	IP address assigned to the server.
STATUS	Server status. It can be one of the following: Active . The server is up and running and controlled by `shaman` . Inactive . The server is up and running, but `shaman` does not control the server (e.g., the shamand service is stopped).
RESOURCES	Resources hosted on the server.
CT ID	Container ID.
VM NAME	Virtual machine name.
ISCSI ID	iSCSI target name.
STATE	Denotes whether the virtual machine/Container is running or stopped.
STATUS	HA status of the virtual machine, Container or iSCSI target (as reported by `shaman` ). It can be one of the following: Active . Healthy virtual machines, Containers or iSCSI targets hosted in the cluster. Broken . Virtual machines, Containers or iSCSI targets that could not be relocated from a failed server to a healthy one. Pool . Virtual machines, Containers or iSCSI targets waiting for relocation from a failed server to a healthy one.
OWNER_IP	IP address of the server where the virtual machine, Container or iSCSI target is hosted.
PRIORITY	Current priority of the virtual machine/Container. For details, see Configuring HA Priority for Virtual Machines and Containers .

The output of the shaman top command is similar to that of shaman stat . Additionally, you can use interactive keys to change the command output on the fly. The following keys are supported:

g : Group or ungroup resources by their status.
v : Show or hide additional information.
ENTER or SPACE: Update the screen.
q or Esc or CTRL-C: Quit the command.
h : Show the help screen.
