Administration Guide
You can display information for extension nodes and extension node adapters
from the SDR by using either the SMIT or command line interface or through the
SP Hardware Perspective.
- Access the List Database Information menu:
- ENTER
- smit list_data
- The List Database Information menu appears.
- List extension node database information:
- SELECT
- List Extension Node Database Information
- The List Extension Node Database Information menu appears.
- ENTER
- Enter values to list extension node database information:
- Allow Nodes Outside Current System Partition?
- yes or no.
- Node Type
- all specifies the query for both standard and dependent
nodes. standard or dependent restricts the query to
those types of nodes.
- Node Group
- The name of the node group to which the query is restricted. Only
the nodes in the named node group will be queried. Not supported
for extension nodes.
- Sort Attribute
- The name of a valid attribute of one of the node classes in the
SDR. (See SDR classes and attributes for more information.) Listing output will be
sorted by this attribute.
- Query Attribute
- The name and value (specified as attribute==value) of a
valid attribute of one of the node classes in the SDR. (See SDR classes and attributes for more information.) Node information will be
listed by the specified attribute. (The default is
node_number, in which case information is listed by node
number.)
- Output Attribute
- The attributes you want displayed.
- SELECT
- OK
- Return to the List Database Information menu.
- List extension node adapter database information:
- SELECT
- List Extension Node Adapters Database Information
- The List Extension Node Adapters Database Information menu appears.
- ENTER
- Enter values to list extension node adapter information:
- Allow Adapters Outside Current System Partition?
- yes or no.
- Node Type
- all specifies the query for both standard and dependent
nodes. standard or dependent restricts the query to
those types of nodes.
- Query Attribute
- The name and value (specified as attribute==value) of a
valid attribute of one of the node classes in the SDR. (See SDR classes and attributes for more information.) Node information will be
listed by the specified attribute. (The default is
node_number, in which case information is listed by node
number.)
- Output Attribute
- The attributes you want displayed.
- SELECT
- OK
- Use the splstnodes command to list information for standard and
extension nodes.
- Use the splstadapters command to list information for standard
node adapters and extension node adapters.
See the book PSSP: Command and Technical Reference for
information on these commands.
Note that in Perspectives, extension nodes are also referred to as IP nodes
or dependent nodes. In the Hardware Perspective, you can:
- View attributes of extension nodes in the properties notebooks by
selecting the node and then selecting the notebook tool bar icon.
- Monitor Switch Responds
See the online help for more details on setting up monitoring.
