This specifies the physical node number on which to execute the
command. Default is to run the command on the deamon running on
the local host.
You only need to specify this parameter if you run multiple ctdb
daemons on the same physical host and thus can not use the default
name for the domain socket.

+ </p><div class="refsect3"
title="node status"><a name="id353559"></a><h4>node status</h4><p>
Node status reflects the current status of the node. There are five possible states:
</p><p>
OK - This node is fully functional.
RECMASTER or NATGW.
This node does not perticipate in the CTDB cluster but can still be
communicated with. I.e. ctdb commands can be sent to it.
- </p></div><div class="refsect3" lang="en"><a name="id2479787"></a><h4>generation</h4><p>
+ </p><p>
+ PARTIALLYONLINE - A node that is partially online participates
+ in a cluster like a node that is ok. Some interfaces to serve
+ public ip addresses are down, but at least one interface is up.
+ See also "ctdb ifaces".
+ </p></div><div class="refsect3" title="generation"><a name="id353608"></a><h4>generation</h4><p>
The generation id is a number that indicates the current generation
of a cluster instance. Each time a cluster goes through a
reconfiguration or a recovery its generation id will be changed.
All nodes start with generation "INVALID" and are not assigned a real
generation id until they have successfully been merged with a cluster
through a recovery.

+ </p></div><div class="refsect2"
title="uptime"><a name="id353718"></a><h3>uptime</h3><p>
This command shows the uptime for the ctdb daemon. When the last recovery or ip-failover completed and how long it took. If the "duration" is shown as a negative number, this indicates that there is a recovery/failover in progress and it started that many seconds ago.
</p><p>
Example: ctdb uptime
Ctdbd start time : (000 16:54:28) Wed Oct 28 17:44:26 2009

Example: ctdb ping

This command will display the list of public addresses that are provided by the cluster and which physical node is currently serving this ip.

This command is used to show the filename of the reclock file that is used.

Example output:
</p><pre class="screen">

+ </pre></div><div class="refsect2"
title="setreclock [filename]"><a name="id310774"></a><h3>setreclock [filename]</h3><p>
This command is used to modify, or clear, the file that is used as the reclock file at runtime. When this command is used, the reclock file checks are disabled. To re-enable the checks the administrator needs to activate the "VerifyRecoveryLock" tunable using "ctdb setvar".
</p><p>
If run with no parameter this will remove the reclock file completely. If run with a parameter the parameter specifies the new filename to use for the recovery lock.
</p><p>
This command only affects the runtime settings of a ctdb node and will be lost when ctdb is restarted. For persistent changes to the reclock file setting you must edit /etc/sysconfig/ctdb.

clustered TDB records but its public ip address has been taken over by
a different node and it no longer hosts any services.

This command is used to administratively STOP a node in the cluster.
A STOPPED node is connected to the cluster but will not host any
public ip addresse, nor does it participate in the VNNMAP.
The difference between a DISABLED node and a STOPPED node is that
a STOPPED node does not host any parts of the database which means
that a recovery is required to stop/continue nodes.

This command is used to add a new public ip to a node during runtime.
This allows public addresses to be added to a cluster without having
to restart the ctdb daemons.

Note that this only updates the runtime instance of ctdb. Any changes will be lost next time ctdb is restarted and the public addresses file is re-read.
If you want this change to be permanent you must also update the public addresses file manually.

This command will force the recovery master to perform a full ip reallocation process and redistribute all ip addresses. This is useful to "reset" the allocations back to its default state if they have been changed using the "moveip" command. While a "recover" will also perform this reallocation, a recovery is much more hevyweight since it will also rebuild all the databases.

This command is used ot enable/disable the LMASTER capability for a node at runtime. This capability determines whether or not a node can be used as an LMASTER for records in the database. A node that does not have the LMASTER capability will not show up in the vnnmap.
</p><p>
Nodes will by default have this capability, but it can be stripped off nodes by the setting in the sysconfig file or by using this command.
Once this setting has been enabled/disabled, you need to perform a recovery for it to take effect.

This command is used ot enable/disable the RECMASTER capability for a node at runtime. This capability determines whether or not a node can be used as an RECMASTER for the cluster. A node that does not have the RECMASTER capability can not win a recmaster election. A node that already is the recmaster for the cluster when the capability is stripped off the node will remain the recmaster until the next cluster election.

This command returns the monutoring mode of a node. The monitoring mode is either ACTIVE or DISABLED. Normally a node will continously monitor that all other nodes that are expected are in fact connected and that they respond to commands.
</p><p>
ACTIVE - This is the normal mode. The node is actively monitoring all other nodes, both that the transport is connected and also that the node responds to commands. If a node becomes unavailable, it will be marked as DISCONNECTED and a recovery is initiated to restore the cluster.
</p><p>
DISABLED - This node is not monitoring that other nodes are available. In this mode a node failure will not be detected and no recovery will be performed. This mode is useful when for debugging purposes one wants to attach GDB to a ctdb process but wants to prevent the rest of the cluster from marking this node as DISCONNECTED and do a recovery.

This command can be used to explicitely disable/enable monitoring mode on a node. The main purpose is if one wants to attach GDB to a running ctdb daemon but wants to prevent the other nodes from marking it as DISCONNECTED and issuing a recovery. To do this, set monitoring mode to 0 on all nodes before attaching with GDB. Remember to set monitoring mode back to 1 afterwards.

A banned node does not participate in the cluster and does not host any records for the clustered TDB. Its ip address has been taken over by an other node and no services are hosted.
