Name Description
System Indicates the status of the node.
status
v The on status indicates that the node is active, that
is, it is an active member of a clustered system.
When the node is active, do not remove it.
v The off state indicates there is no power to the
canister or the canister is in standby mode. These
conditions can cause the off state:
– The main processor is off and only the service
processor is active.
– A power-on self-test (POST) is running on the
canister.
– The operating system is loading.
v The flashing status indicates that the node is in
candidate state or service state. It is not able to
perform I/O in a system. When the node is in
either of these states, it can be removed. Do not
remove the canister unless directed by a service
procedure.
