Aggregate information

Command for displaying aggregate information

You use the aggr status command to display information about aggregate configurations. The types of information displayed depend on the command options. When you specify an aggregate, such as aggr status aggr0, the information for that aggregate is displayed; when you do not specify an aggregate, the status of all aggregates and traditional volumes in the storage system is displayed.

The aggregate status commands work for aggregates that were created explicitly, as well as for the aggregates created automatically when traditional volumes were created. Because a traditional volumes is tightly coupled with its containing aggregate, the aggregate status commands return information for both aggregates and traditional volumes. In both cases, it is the aggregate information that is returned.

For more information about aggregates, see the chapter on aggregates in the Storage Administration Guide. For more information about the aggr command, see the na_aggr(1) man page.

Aggregate state information

With no options, the aggr status command displays a concise synopsis of aggregate states. This includes the name of the aggregate, whether it is an aggregate or traditional volume, whether it is online, offline, or restricted, whether its RAID type is RAID4 or RAID-DP, and other states, such as partial or degraded, and any options that are enabled, either by default or through the aggr options or vol options command.

Disk information

The aggr status -d command displays information about disks. The disk information is the same as the information from the sysconfig -d command.

RAID and checksum information

The aggr status -r command displays RAID, plex, and checksum information for an aggregate. The display is the same as the sysconfig -r display.

RAID information for each group

The aggr status -v command displays information about each RAID group within an aggregate or traditional volume, and the settings of the aggregate options.

Getting aggregate information using the stats command

You can also get aggregate information, either interactively or with a script, using the stats command. For more information about the stats command, see Getting storage system information using the stats command.
