System Agent

Software version information

The software version section displays the versions of the system software installed on this machine: BIOS, drivers, and

agents.
This section also displays a string that specifies the version of HP Insight Management Agents running on the system.

Cluster information

The cluster information section displays the overall status of a cluster. It also displays the state of the cluster service

running on each node, as well as the worst-case status of the shared resources of each node.

Information about cluster nodes, resource groups, networks, interconnects, and software might appear.

Cluster nodes

The cluster node section contains information about the systems that are members (nodes) of the cluster. This section

displays the names of the nodes, status of the cluster service running on the nodes, and the status of the shared

resources. The following cluster service status values are available:

Up—The node is operating as an active member of a cluster. A node that is up can respond to updates to the

cluster database, can host and manage groups, and can maintain communication with other nodes in the

cluster.

Paused—The node is operating as an active member of a cluster but cannot host any resources or resource

groups. The node is up but cluster activity is paused. Nodes that are undergoing maintenance are typically

placed in this state.

Joining—The node is in the process of joining a cluster. This is a temporary state.

Down—The node is trying to form or rejoin a cluster or is down. A node that is down is not an active cluster

member and it might or might not be running. The Cluster Service might have started and then failed or might

have failed to start.

Unknown—An error has occurred and the exact state of the node could not be determined, or the node status is

unavailable.

Cluster resources groups

The Cluster Resources Groups section displays the cluster resources by resource group. The following information

might appear:

Name—Displays the name of the resource and the color status associated with the resource state.

State—Displays the current state of the resource, which can be one of the following:

Online—The resource is online and functioning normally.

Offline—The resource is offline.

Online pending—The resource is in the process of coming online.

Offline pending—The resource is in the process of going offline.

Failed—The resource has failed.

Unknown—The resource has not responded and the exact state is undetermined.

Type—Displays the resource type, which is acquired from the cluster service.

Owner—Displays the name of the node in the cluster that currently owns this resource.

Identification—Displays information based on the resource type. If the type is Physical Disk, identification

displays the drive letter, the physical identification, and the logical drive number. For disks, this is the physical

ID entered at the server for this disk or the serial number if nothing was entered. If the type is IP Address, then

the IP address appears. Any other resource type displays

N/A.

Cluster networks

The Cluster Network section displays the following information about the networks connected to the cluster nodes:

Name—Displays the name of the network.

Role—Displays how the network is used for communication by the cluster, which can be one of the following:

Internal—The network is used for internal cluster communication.

Client—The network is used to connect client systems to the cluster.
