Use the ls command in the /clusters/cluster-name/consistency-groups/consistency-group context to
display the operational status of the groups.
In the following example, the command displays the operational status of a consistency group on a healthy metro node:
VPlexcli:/> ls /clusters/cluster-1/consistency-groups/cg1
/clusters/cluster-1/consistency-groups/cg1:
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/consistency-groups/cg1> ls

The following example displays output of the ls command in the /clusters/cluster-name/ consistency-groups/
consistency-group context during an inter-cluster link outage.
● The detach-rule is no-automatic-winner, so I/O stops at both clusters. metro node remains in this state until either
the inter-cluster link restarts, or you intervene using the consistency-group choose-winner command.
● Status summary is suspended, showing that I/O has stopped.
● Status details contain cluster-departure, indicating that the clusters can no longer communicate with one another.
