lssystem

Use the lssystem command to display a detailed view of a clustered system (system).

Syntax

 lssystem    [  -nohdr  ]   [  -delim  delimiter  ]

Parameters

-nohdr
(Optional) By default, headings are displayed for each item of data in a detailed style view. The -nohdr parameter suppresses the display of these headings.
Note: If no data exists to be displayed, headings are not displayed.
-delim delimiter
(Optional) In a detailed view, each item of data has its own row, and if the headers are displayed, the data is separated from the header by a space. The -delim parameter overrides this behavior. Valid input for the -delim parameter is a character with 1 byte. In a detailed view, the data is separated from its header by the specified delimiter.

Description

This command displays a detailed view of a system.

lssystem output provides the attribute values that can be displayed as output view data.
Table 1. lssystem output

  • tier_nearline
tier_capacity Indicates the total MDisk storage in the tier.
tier_free_capacity Indicates the amount of MDisk storage in the tier that is unused.
compression_active Indicates whether any compressed volume copies exist in non-data reduction pools. Compressed volumes that are in data reduction pools do not count towards this value.
compression_virtual_capacity Indicates the total virtual capacity for all compressed volume copies in non-data reduction pools. Compressed volumes that are in data reduction pools do not count towards this value. This value is in unsigned decimal format.
compression_compressed_capacity Indicates the total used capacity for all compressed volume copies in non-data reduction pools. Compressed volumes that are in data reduction pools do not count towards this value. This value is in unsigned decimal format.
compression_uncompressed_capacity Indicates the total uncompressed used capacity for all compressed volume copies in non-data reduction pools. Compressed volumes that are in data reduction pools do not count towards this value. This value is in unsigned decimal format.
physical_capacity Indicates the total physical capacity of all provisioning groups that provide MDisks virtualized by the system. The value must be a number (indicated in units) that is rounded to two decimal places.

total_reclaimable_capacity Indicates the unused (free) capacity that will be available after data is reduced. For storage pools that are not data reduction pools, this field reports 0.00MB.
Note: total_reclaimable_capacity is a sum of all the lsmdiskgrpreclaimable_capacities, which has a +/-1% margin. Therefore, this field has up to a +/-4% margin.
used_capacity_before_reduction Indicates the total amount of data that is written to thin-provisioned and compressed volume copies that are in data reduction storage pools - before data reduction occurs. This value does not include fully allocated volumes (that can be created in a data reduction storage pool) because they are not eligible for reduction.

deduplication_opportunity Indicates the total amount of used_capacity_before_reduction of all volume-copies within data reduction pools that are enabled for data deduplicatoin.

Information about the remote system is reported by the lssystem command if you issue either the mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command from the local system to the remote system. For example, if the partnership is at least partially established from the local system.

Issue the lssystem command to display a detailed view of the system.

Detailed view shows the fields that are described for remote systems only; if the system location is local, then partnership and bandwidth do not apply (and are not defined or provided). For a remote system, these fields indicate the following information:
location
remote or local
partnership
fully_configured
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued in both directions and the remote system is online and available.
partially_configured_local
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued from the local system to the remote system. The remote system is online and available for partnership.
partially_configured_local_stopped
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued from the local system to the remote system. The chpartnership command with the stop parameter is issued from the local system, and the remote system is online and available. Issue the chpartnership command with the start parameter on the local system, and mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership on the remote system.
not_present
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued from the local system to the remote system, and the remote system is not available. Either the remote system is offline, or it is not connected to the local system.
fully_configured_stopped
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued in both directions and the remote system is online and available. The chpartnership command with the stop parameter is issued from the local system.
fully_configured_remote_stopped
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued in both directions and the remote system is online and available. The chpartnership command with the stop parameter is issued from the remote system.
fully_configured_local_excluded
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued in both directions. The local system is excluding the connection to the remote system due to too many problems, or either system in the partnership is unable to sustain the I/O workload for the Metro Mirror, Global Mirror, or HyperSwap relationships.
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued in both directions. The local system is excluding the connection to the remote system due to too many problems.
fully_configured_remote_excluded
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command has been issued in both directions. The remote system is excluding the connection to the local system due to too many problems, or either system in the partnership is unable to sustain the I/O workload for the Metro Mirror, Global Mirror, or HyperSwap relationships.
The mkfcpartnership or mkippartnership command is issued in both directions. The remote system excludes the connection to the local system due to too many problems.
fully_configured_exceeded
Too many systems exist in the system network, and the partnership from the local system to the remote is disabled. Refer to the 1710 or 1720 errors in the system error log at the local and remote system.
bandwidth
The bandwidth available on the intersystem link for background copy, in megabytes per second (MBps).
Important: For partnerships over IP links with compression, this parameter specifies the aggregate bandwidth after the compression had been applied to the data. Do not set this parameter higher than the physical link bandwidth multiplied by the (carefully rounded down) compression factor.
The console_IP field displays either the:
  • Automatically populated system port 1 IP Address - Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) or IPv6
  • User-populated IPv4 address
The port value is always 443, which requires the system to run by using default Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS).
