Abstract:
Methods and systems for port reachability are provided. The process obtains an identifier for ports of a broadcast domain to access storage space at a clustered storage system; sends a discovery request to the ports of the broadcast domain; receives a response to the discovery request from some or all the ports; places ports that responded to the discovery request to a first group that indicates that all ports within the group are reachable; and reports ports within the first group to a user to indicate which ports within the broadcast domain are reachable.
Abstract:
One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for cluster configuration information replication, managing cluster-wide service agents, and/or for cluster-wide outage detection. In an example of cluster configuration information replication, a replication workflow corresponding to a storage operation implemented for a storage object (e.g., renaming of a volume) of a first cluster may be transferred to a second storage cluster for selectively implementation. In an example of managing cluster-wide service agents, cluster-wide service agents are deployed to nodes of a cluster storage environment, where a master agent actively processes cluster service calls and standby agents passively wait for reassignment as a failover master in the event the master agent fails. In an example of cluster-wide outage detection, a cluster-wide outage may be determined for a cluster storage environment based upon a number of inaccessible nodes satisfying a cluster outage detection metric.
