Accessing a node's log, core dump, and MIB files by using a web browser
The Service Processor Infrastructure ( spi ) web service is enabled by default to enable a web browser to access the log, core dump, and MIB files of a node in the cluster. The files remain accessible even when the node is down, provided that the node is taken over by its partner.
Before you begin
The cluster management LIF must be up.
You can use the management LIF of the cluster or a node to access the spi web service. However, using the cluster management LIF is recommended.
The network interface show command displays the status of all LIFs in the cluster.
If your user account does not have the
admin
role (which has access to the spi web service by default), your access-control role must be granted access to the spi web service.The vserver services web access show command shows what roles are granted access to which web services.
If you are not using the
admin
user account (which includes the http access method by default), your user account must be set up with the http access method.The security login show command shows user accounts' access and login methods and their access-control roles.
If you want to use HTTPS for secure web access, SSL must be enabled and a digital certificate must be installed.
The system services web show command displays the configuration of the web protocol engine at the cluster level.
