Host and Service Status Value Definitions
The following tables define the possible host and service status values and
the associated color coding used in some PCC views. The normal values are
UP (host) and OK (service), indicated by shading.
DEAD The cell requires attention .
It is not available for document storage, search, or
retrieval. If backup is enabled, some or all cell data
may
not have been backed up; if so, it will never be
backed up.
failure
SUSPENDED Either of the following is true:
• The cell or its mirror cell has one or more
failed
processes
. In this case both are SUSPENDED.
• The mirror cell is DEAD.
Note: If the Application Health service for the cell is OK,
then it is (only) the mirror cell that has failed. (You
can use the Service Detail view to check this service.)
The cell is not available for storage. It is available for
document search and retrieval (unless a failed
process has disabled the search engine). If backup is
enabled, the cell is backing up any new data that has
not yet been backed up.
