The lsnode command returns a concise list or a detailed
view of nodes visible to the cluster.
The list report style can be used to obtain two styles of
report:
- A list containing concise information about all the nodes on
a cluster. (Each entry in the list corresponds to a single node.)
- The detailed information about a single node.

Parameters
- -filtervalue attrib=value
- (Optional) Specifies a list of one or more filters. Only objects
with a value that matches the filter attribute value are returned.
If a capacity is specified, the units must also be included.
Note: Some filters allow the use of a wildcard when you enter
the command. The following rules apply to the use of wildcards with
the
SAN Volume Controller CLI:
- -filtervalue?
- Displays a list of valid filter attributes for the -filtervalue attribute=value parameter.
The valid filters for the svcinfo lsnode command are:
- node_name
- id
- status
- IO_group_name
- IO_group_id
- name
- hardware
- -nohdr
- (Optional) By default, headings are displayed for each column
of data in a concise style view, and for each item of data in a detailed
style view. The -nohdr parameter suppresses
the display of these headings.
Note: If
there is no data to be displayed, headings are not displayed.
- -delim delimiter
- (Optional) By default in a concise view, all columns of data are
space-separated. The width of each column is set to the maximum possible
width of each item of data. In a detailed view, each item of data
has its own row, and if the headers are displayed the data is separated
from the header by a space. The -delim parameter
overrides this behavior. Valid input for the -delim parameter
is a one-byte character. If you enter -delim : on
the command line, the colon character (:) separates
all items of data in a concise view; for example, the spacing of columns
does not occur. In a detailed view, the data is separated from its
header by the specified delimiter.
- object_id | object_name
- (Optional) Specifies the name or ID of an object. When you use
this parameter, the detailed view of the specific object is returned
and any value that is specified by the -filtervalue parameter
is ignored. If you do not specify the object_id | object_name parameter,
the concise view of all objects matching the filtering requirements
that is specified by the -filtervalue parameter
are displayed.
Description
This
command returns a concise list or a detailed view of nodes visible
to the cluster.
Table 1 provides
the possible values that are applicable to the attributes that are
displayed as data in the output views. Table 1. svcinfo lsnode attribute values| Attribute |
Value |
| status |
offline | flushing | pending | online | adding
| deleting |
| config_ node |
no | yes |
| port_status |
active | inactive | not installed |
| hardware |
4F2
| 8F2 | 8F4 | 8G4 | CF8 | 8A4 | other |
To determine a node's WWPNs, enter the following
command:
svcinfo lsnode
Note: Record
the node name or ID because you use this value in the next step.
For
the node or nodes in question, issue the following command:
svcinfo lsnode node_name | node_id
where
node_name
| node_id is the node name or ID.
Note: Record the four port IDs
(WWPNs).
Attention: If the node is in the adding
state, the WWPN is displayed as 0000000000000000. Once the node has
successfully become a member of the cluster, the state changes to
online and the WWPN is displayed correctly.
