supper has subcommands which report information about file collections. These subcommands are useful for verifying information before performing file collection manipulations or for checking results at some point during a procedure.
The following table shows the supper subcommand to use, where
you would run the command, and the data you can report. See the book
PSSP: Command and Technical Reference for additional command
options.
Table 11. Subcommands of supper
| Use: | On: | To report this information: |
|---|---|---|
| status | Control workstation, boot-install servers, and nodes | Name, resident status, and access point of all available file collections, plus the name and estimated size of their associated file systems |
| files | boot-install servers and nodes | All the resident files resulting from a supper update or install command |
| serve | Control workstation and boot-install servers | All the collections that can be served from your machine |
| where | boot-install servers and nodes | Current boot-install servers for collections |
| when | boot-install servers and nodes | Last update time of all resident collections |
| diskinfo | Control workstation and boot-install servers | Available disk space and active volume for your machine |
| log | boot-install servers and nodes | Summary of the current or most recent supper session |
| rlog | boot-install servers and nodes | Raw output of the current or most recent supper session |
The following examples show the output produced by some of these commands.
From the control workstation:
[tserv11][/]> supper status Collection Resident Access Point Filesystem Size =============================================================================== node.root - / - - power_system - /share/power/system - - sup.admin - /var/sysman - - user.admin - / - - ===============================================================================
From a boot-install server:
[r05n01][/]> supper status Collection Resident Access Point Filesystem Size =============================================================================== node.root Yes / - - power_system Yes /share/power/system - - sup.admin Yes /var/sysman - - user.admin Yes / - - ===============================================================================
From a processor node:
[r05n10][/]> supper status Collection Resident Access Point Filesystem Size =============================================================================== node.root Yes / - - power_system - /share/power/system - - sup.admin Yes /var/sysman - - user.admin Yes / - - ===============================================================================
Example of a supper where command:
[r05n01][/var/sysman/sup/node.root]> supper where supper: Collection node.root would be updated from server r05cw. supper: Collection power_system would be updated from server r05cw. supper: Collection sup.admin would be updated from server r05cw. supper: Collection user.admin would be updated from server r05cw.
