Some Isilon notes
Isilon, Isilon, how do you work… no one really knows. However here are a few useful, seemly undocumented commands you can run when ssh’d into a node:
Finding large files
fstat is a bit like lsof in the Linux world, but exists on FreeBSD:
fstat | sort -k 8 -n -r | more
Finding serial number
isi config quit
gathering and uploading info, usually required for a support call
isi_info_gather
Show status/alert info
isi status isi alerts
Do something on all cluster nodes
isi_for_array 'df -h'
Hello,
the correct command to gather and upload cluster info is “isi_gather_info”.
Best,
Alessandro
You could exec this command:
isi_for_array “echo quit|isi config|grep ‘serial number'”
Easiest way to query the serial numbers that I know of is:
isi_for_array isi_hw_status | grep SerNo
