Cluster collection columns

Sort columns by clicking the column header for ascending or descending order. Place your cursor over a
column name for a brief description of the column. See

“Customizing the cluster table view page”

for more

information on customizing columns.

Cluster Description

Selection

Select the checkbox in this column to select a cluster. You can select more than one cluster. This option is
available in both the table view and the tree view. Select the checkbox in the column heading or select
Select "collection name" itself

to select all displayed clusters.

CS

The CS column (indicating cluster status) contains the cluster status icon for each particular cluster, a status
that reflects the most severe status of all the cluster members and

Cluster Monitor Resources

(for MSCS,

OpenVMS, TruClusters, and Novell Netware clusters), such as disk or CPU, for that cluster. This status is
independent of the hardware and software status shown on the system table view page. For an HP
Serviceguard cluster, cluster status is set to Unknown. To view the accurate state of the Serviceguard cluster
status, HP Serviceguard Manager should be used. For MSCS clusters, the status is the most critical cluster
status displayed in Cluster Monitor. This status is determined by the threshold (CPU, Disk) status and the node
status of the cluster nodes that are retrieved by the HP Insight Management Agent (if available). For all other
types of clusters, the status is determined by the most critical of the threshold (CPU, Disk) statuses and the
node statuses of the cluster nodes retrieved by the Insight Management Agent (if available). See

“System

status types”

for more information on the different system status types.

NOTE:

To have the cluster status be comprised of only the MSCS cluster status, and show the true health

of the cluster, you can edit the globalsettings.props file and change the

ClusterStatusWithThresholds

property to false. For those non-MSCS clusters (OpenVMS, TruClusters, and Novell NetWare), excluding
HP Serviceguard clusters, the cluster status is displayed as Unknown.
1.

Open the globalsettings.props file located at:

On Windows

It is typically located at C:\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight

Manager\config\globalsettings.props

.

On HP-UX and Linux

It is located at /etc/opt/mx/config/globalsettings.props.

2.

Set the

ClusterStatusWithThresholds property to false.

3.

Save the file.

Cluster Name

The Cluster Name column contains the cluster name. When you place the cursor over the cluster name, the
full system

DNS

name is shown. If you click the cluster name of an MSCS cluster, the Cluster Monitor page

displays. See

“Cluster Monitor”

for more information. If the cluster selected is an HP Serviceguard cluster,

a new cluster table view page appears, showing the servers in the cluster. From this list, click a server name
to access the System Page for that server. If the cluster is of any other type, the System Page for that
cluster appears. See

“System tab for clusters”

for more information.

Cluster Address

The Cluster Address column contains the IP address for the cluster.
