    Yaniv,

    The easiest way to determine if a host is active in a cluster is to run the following command:

    #> hasys -state

    That being said, this will only tell you whether the HAD service is running and what nodes are "seeded."  If you are more interested in the status of service groups, you will want to run the follwing command:

    #> hastatus -sum

    or

    #> hastatus

    These commands are platform agnostic.

    Hope this helps,

    Joe D

Hi Joe,

I am afraid I fail to explain myself since I wasn't familiar with your application's terminology.

Virtual machines have nothing to do with my need here, it's not what I meant.

I have a monitoring tool which gets IP addresses and should reflect the status of the installed applications on those machines.

How can I know by retrieving IP addresses from a specific segment if the Entity that was found is:

a physical node from the cluster

or

the global cluster IP?

(because, if I find it to be a physical node from the cluster, I present one thing in the monitoring tool GUI and if I find it to be the global cluster IP - I present something else in the GUI).

Sorry for the confusion, I hope I made it more clear now.

If not, how can I reach you over the phone?

Thanks

Yaniv
