IBM General Parallel File System for AIX: Administration and Programming Reference

Displaying GPFS cluster configuration information

When managing your GPFS cluster, you can display the current configuration information for the cluster by issuing the mmlscluster command. The command displays:

• The cluster ID
• The remote shell command being used
• The remote file copy command being used
• The primary GPFS cluster data server
• The secondary GPFS cluster data server
• Nodes belonging to each nodeset in the GPFS cluster
• GPFS cluster nodes not currently assigned to a nodeset

For each node, the command displays:

• The node number assigned to the node by GPFS
• Short hostname
• IP address
• Long hostname

To display this information, enter:

mmlscluster

The system displays information similar to:
