Dell EMC Metro node 7.1 CLI Guide

• cluster departure - One or more of the clusters cannot be contacted. Commands affecting distributed storage are refused.
• degraded - The location is not functioning at an optimal level. This may indicate non-functioning remote virtual volume, unhealthy devices or storage volumes, suspended devices, conflicting director count configuration values, out-of-date devices, and so forth.
• device initializing - If clusters cannot communicate with each other, then the distributed-device will be unable to initialize.
• device out of date - Child devices are being marked fully out of date. Sometimes this occurs after a link outage.
• expelled - The cluster has been isolated from the island either manually (by an administrator) or automatically (by a system configuration setting).
• ok - The cluster is operating normally.
• shutdown - The cluster’s directors are shutting down.
• suspended exports - Some I/O is suspended. This could be result of a link failure or loss of a director. Other states might indicate the true problem. It may not be a problem, and the metro node might be waiting for you to confirm the resumption of I/O.
• transitioning - Components of the software are recovering from a previous incident (for example, the loss of a director or the loss of an inter-cluster link).

• degraded - The cluster is not functioning at an optimal level. This may indicate non-functioning remote virtual volume, unhealthy devices or storage volumes, suspended devices, conflicting director count configuration values, or out-of-date devices.
• ok - The cluster is functioning normally.
• unknown - Metro node cannot determine the cluster's health state, or the state is invalid.
• major failure - The cluster is failing and some functionality may be degraded or unavailable. This may indicate complete loss of back-end connectivity.
• minor failure - The cluster is functioning, but some functionality may be degraded. This may indicate one or more unreachable storage volumes.

• warning - Some links have unexpected connectivity. This port-group is operational but not properly configured. Performance may not be optimal.
• error - Some connectivity is missing from this port-group. It is not operating correctly.
• fail - All connectivity is missing from this port-group. wan-com is not operational.

• major failure - The cluster is not Highly Available and some functionality may be degraded or unavailable.
• minor failure - The cluster is functioning, but some functionality may be degraded.
• failed to validate virtual-ha - Indicates that evaluation of the virtual-ha status failed, and provides some details why the virtual-ha status could not be validated.

• ok - The system has a valid certificate.
• warning - The certificate will expire in 30 days. Expired certificates can impact inter-cluster connectivity, which can lead to data unavailability. Renew the certificates using the vplex_system_config -i --show-ssl-certificates command before their expiry.
• error - The certificate has expired, or a certificate is not found on the cluster. Expired certificates can impact inter-cluster connectivity and it can lead to data unavailability. If a certificate is expired, renew it using the vplex_system_config -i --show-ssl-certificates command. If a certificate is not found on the system, create new certificates using the vplex_system_config -i --update-ssl-certificates command.

full - All port-groups have a status of either ok or warning. wan-com connectivity is complete through minor configuration errors may still exist. See individual port-group statuses.

• partial - Some port-groups have a status of error or fail, but at least one port-group has a status of ok or warning. WAN COM is operating (possibly minimally) through at least one channel. Performance is degraded.
• none - All port-groups have a status of either error or fail. wan-com is not operational.
• not-applicable - The system is a single-cluster (i.e. Local) system. Validating wan-com connectivity is not applicable.
