19.9. Displaying Volume Status


You can display the status information about a specific volume, brick, or all volumes, as needed. Status information can be used to understand the current status of the brick, NFS processes, self-heal daemon and overall file system. Status information can also be used to monitor and debug the volume information. You can view status of the volume along with the details:
  • detail - Displays additional information about the bricks.
  • clients - Displays the list of clients connected to the volume.
  • mem - Displays the memory usage and memory pool details of the bricks.
  • inode - Displays the inode tables of the volume.
  • fd - Displays the open file descriptor tables of the volume.
  • callpool - Displays the pending calls of the volume.
Setting Timeout Period

When you try to obtain information of a specific volume, the command may get timed out from the CLI if the originator glusterd takes longer than 120 seconds, the default time out, to aggregate the results from all the other glusterds and report back to CLI.

You can use the --timeout option to ensure that the commands do not get timed out by 120 seconds.
For example,
# gluster volume status --timeout=500  VOLNAME  inode
It is recommended to use --timeout option when obtaining information about the inodes or clients or details as they frequently get timed out.
Display information about a specific volume using the following command:
# gluster volume status --timeout=value_in_seconds [all|VOLNAME [nfs | shd | BRICKNAME]] [detail |clients | mem | inode | fd |callpool]
For example, to display information about test-volume:
# gluster volume status test-volume
Status of volume: test-volume
Gluster process                        Port    Online   Pid

Self-heal Daemon on localhost          N/A     Y       18491
The self-heal daemon status will be displayed only for replicated volumes.
Display information about all volumes using the command:
# gluster volume status all
# gluster volume status all

Display additional information about the bricks using the command:
# gluster volume status VOLNAME detail
For example, to display additional information about the bricks of test-volume:
# gluster volume status test-volume detail
