metrocluster check lif show

Show results of MetroCluster check results for the data LIFs

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description​

The metrocluster check lif show command displays the LIF placement failures in the MetroCluster configuration.

The command verifies the following aspects of the LIF placements of all the data LIFs in Metrocluster:

  • lif-placed-on-dr-node: This check verifies that the LIF is placed on DR partner node.

  • port-selection: This check verifies that the LIF is placed on correct port.

The LIF placement failures are mostly fabric/network connectivity issues that require manual intervention. Once the connectivity issues are resolved manually, the admin is expected to run metrocluster check lif repair-placement command to resolve the LIF placement issues for the sync source Vserver.

Additional information about the warnings (if any) and recovery steps can be viewed by running the command with the -instance option.

Parameters​

The following example shows the execution of the command in a MetroCluster configuration with two nodes per cluster:
