Viewing vCMP Guest Status
About guest
status
As a vCMP host administrator, you
can log into the vCMP host and view status information about each guest. Using the BIG-IP Configuration utility or the Traffic Management
Shell (
tmsh
), you can view this information in two
forms:- A summary of information for all guests on the vCMP system.
- Detailed information about a specific guest, such as software status, resource provisioning, and high availability (HA) status for specific services running on the guest.
Viewing summary status for all guests
vCMP administrators can view guest summary information
while logged into the vCMP host. The vCMP system displays this information on a
single screen of the BIG-IP Configuration utility for all
guests on the vCMP system. The summary information consists of:
- Guest names.
- The product and version number of the currently-active software volume per guest.
- A list of the specific BIG-IP modules provisioned per guest.
- Per-slot command-line interface prompt status. This status consists of the slot numbers for clustered guests, status color, a slot designation ofP(primary) orS(secondary), and high availability (HA) status.
- HA failure status. This status indicates an HA failure on the guest, and if applicable, a link to the HA Failure screen for the guest.
- On the Main tab, click.For example, the following shows a list of sample guests with summary information.
