Checking CTDB health

Use this information for checking system health with the clustered trivial database
(CTDB).
CTDB checks the health status of the Storwize V7000 Unified file modules,
scanning elements such as storage access, General Parallel File System (GPFS),
networking, Common Internet File System (CIFS), and Network File System (NFS).
An unhealthy file module cannot serve public Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and
