The output identifies the machines where peer database server processes are running, which of them is the synchronization site (Ubik coordinator), and the status of the connections between them. .SH "OPTIONS" .IX Header "OPTIONS" .IP "\fB\-server\fR <\fIserver machine\fR>" 4 .IX Item "-server " Names the database server machine that is running the process for which to display status information. Provide the machine's \s-1IP\s0 address in dotted decimal format, its fully qualified host name (for example, \&\fBfs1.abc.com\fR), or the shortest abbreviated form of its host name that distinguishes it from other machines. Successful use of an abbreviated form depends on the availability of a name resolution service (such as the Domain Name Service or a local host table) at the time the command is issued. .IP "\fB\-port\fR <\fI\s-1IP\s0 port\fR>" 4 .IX Item "-port " Identifies the database server process for which to display status information, either by its process name or port number.

The information appears by default if that machine is the synchronization site. .IP "\fB\-help\fR" 4 .IX Item "-help" Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. .SH "OUTPUT" .IX Header "OUTPUT" Several of the messages in the output provide basic status information about the Ubik process on the machine specified by the \fB\-server\fR argument, and the remaining messages are useful mostly for debugging purposes. .PP To check basic Ubik status, issue the command for each database server machine in turn. In the output for each, one of the following messages appears in the top third of the output. .PP .Vb 1 \& I am sync site . . . (<#_sites> servers) \& \& I am not sync site .Ve .PP For the synchronization site, the following message indicates that all sites have the same version of the database, which implies that Ubik is functioning correctly. See the following for a description of values other than \f(CW\*(C`1f\*(C'\fR. .PP .Vb 1 \& Recovery state 1f .Ve .PP For correct Ubik operation, the database server machine clocks must agree on the time. The following messages, which are the second and third lines in the output, report the current date and time according to the database server machine's clock and the clock on the machine where the \fBudebug\fR command is issued. .PP .Vb 2 \& Host\*(Aqs time is \& Local time is (time differential secs) .Ve .PP The is the difference between the database server machine clock and the local clock. Its absolute value is not vital for Ubik functioning, but a difference of more than a few seconds between the \fIskew\fR values for the database server machines indicates that their clocks are not synchronized and Ubik performance is possibly hampered. .PP Following is a description of all messages in the output. As noted, it is useful mostly for debugging and most meaningful to someone who understands Ubik's implementation. .PP The output begins with the following messages. The first message reports the \s-1IP\s0 addresses that are configured with the operating system on the machine specified by the \fB\-server\fR argument. As previously noted, the second and third messages report the current date and time according to the clocks on the database server machine and the machine where the \&\fBudebug\fR command is issued, respectively. All subsequent timestamps in the output are expressed in terms of the local clock rather than the database server machine clock. .PP .Vb 3 \& Host\*(Aqs addresses are: \& Host\*(Aqs time is \& Local time is (time differential secs) .Ve .PP If the is more than about 10 seconds, the following message appears. As noted, it does not necessarily indicate Ubik malfunction: it denotes clock skew between the database server machine and the local machine, rather than among the database server machines. .PP .Vb 1 \& ****clock may be bad .Ve .PP If the udebug command is issued during the coordinator election process and voting has not yet begun, the following message appears next. .PP .Vb 1 \& Last yes vote not cast yet .Ve .PP Otherwise, the output continues with the following messages. .PP .Vb 3 \& Last yes vote for was secs ago (sync site); \& Last vote started secs ago (at ) \& Local db version is .Ve .PP The first indicates which peer this Ubik process last voted for as coordinator (it can vote for itself) and how long ago it sent the vote. The second message indicates how long ago the Ubik coordinator requested confirming votes from the secondary sites. Usually, the and values are the same; a difference between them can indicate clock skew or a slow network connection between the two database server machines. A small difference is not harmful. The third message reports the current version number of the database maintained by this Ubik process. It has two fields separated by a period. The field before the period is based on a timestamp that reflects when the database first changed after the most recent coordinator election, and the field after the period indicates the number of changes since the election. .PP The output continues with messages that differ depending on whether the Ubik process is the coordinator or not. .IP "\(bu" 4 If there is only one database server machine, it is always the coordinator (synchronization site), as indicated by the following message. .Sp .Vb 1 \& I am sync site forever (1 server) .Ve .IP "\(bu" 4 If there are multiple database sites, and the \fB\-server\fR argument names the coordinator (synchronization site), the output continues with the following two messages. .Sp .Vb 3 \& I am sync site until secs from now (at ) \& (<#_sites> servers) \& Recovery state .Ve .Sp The first message (which is reported on one line) reports how much longer the site remains coordinator even if the next attempt to maintain quorum fails, and how many sites are participating in the quorum. The \fIflags\fR field in the second message is a hexadecimal number that indicates the current state of the quorum. A value of \f(CW\*(C`1f\*(C'\fR indicates complete database synchronization, whereas a value of \f(CW\*(C`f\*(C'\fR means that the coordinator has the correct database but cannot contact all secondary sites to determine if they also have it. Lesser values are acceptable if the \fBudebug\fR command is issued during coordinator election, but they denote a problem if they persist. The individual flags have the following meanings: .RS 4 .IP "0x1" 4 .IX Item "0x1" This machine is the coordinator. .IP "0x2" 4 .IX Item "0x2" The coordinator has determined which site has the database with the highest version number. .IP "0x4" 4 .IX Item "0x4" The coordinator has a copy of the database with the highest version number. .IP "0x8" 4 .IX Item "0x8" The database's version number has been updated correctly. .IP "0x10" 4 .IX Item "0x10" All sites have the database with the highest version number. .RE .RS 4 .Sp If the udebug command is issued while the coordinator is writing a change into the database, the following additional message appears. .Sp .Vb 1 \& I am currently managing write transaction I .Ve .RE .IP "\(bu" 4 If the \fB\-server\fR argument names a secondary site, the output continues with the following messages. .Sp .Vb 3 \& I am not sync site \& Lowest host was set secs ago \& Sync host was set secs ago .Ve .Sp The is the lowest \s-1IP\s0 address of any peer from which the Ubik process has received a message recently, whereas the is the \s-1IP\s0 address of the current coordinator. If they differ, the machine with the lowest \s-1IP\s0 address is not currently the coordinator. The Ubik process continues voting for the current coordinator as long as they remain in contact, which provides for maximum stability. However, in the event of another coordinator election, this Ubik process votes for the site instead (assuming they are in contact), because it has a bias to vote in elections for the site with the lowest \s-1IP\s0 address. .PP For both the synchronization and secondary sites, the output continues with the following messages. The first message reports the version number of the database at the synchronization site, which needs to match the reported by the preceding \f(CW\*(C`Local db version\*(C'\fR message. The second message indicates how many \s-1VLDB\s0 records are currently locked for any operation or for writing in particular. The values are nonzero if the \&\fBudebug\fR command is issued while an operation is in progress. .PP .Vb 2 \& Sync site\*(Aqs db version is \& locked pages, of them for write .Ve .PP The following messages appear next only if there are any read or write locks on database records: .PP .Vb 2 \& There are read locks held \& There are write locks held .Ve .PP Similarly, one or more of the following messages appear next only if there are any read or write transactions in progress when the \fBudebug\fR command is issued: .PP .Vb 3 \& There is an active write transaction \& There is at least one active read transaction \& Transaction tid is .Ve .PP If the machine named by the \fB\-server\fR argument is the coordinator, the next message reports when the current coordinator last updated the database. .PP .Vb 2 \& Last time a new db version was labelled was: \& secs ago (at ) .Ve .PP If the machine named by the \fB\-server\fR argument is the coordinator, the output concludes with an entry for each secondary site that is participating in the quorum, in the following format. .PP .Vb 5 \& Server (): (db ) \& last vote rcvd secs ago (at ), \& last beacon sent secs ago (at ), \& last vote was { yes | no } \& dbcurrent={ 0 | 1 }, up={ 0 | 1 } beaconSince={ 0 | 1 } .Ve .PP The first line reports the site's \s-1IP\s0 address and the version number of the database it is maintaining. The field reports how long ago the coordinator received a vote message from the Ubik process at the site, and the field how long ago the coordinator last requested a vote message. If the \fBudebug\fR command is issued during the coordinator election process and voting has not yet begun, the following messages appear instead. .PP .Vb 2 \& Last vote never rcvd \& Last beacon never sent .Ve .PP On the final line of each entry, the fields have the following meaning: .IP "\(bu" 4 \&\f(CW\*(C`dbcurrent\*(C'\fR is \f(CW1\fR if the site has the database with the highest version number, \f(CW0\fR if it does not. .IP "\(bu" 4 \&\f(CW\*(C`up\*(C'\fR is \f(CW1\fR if the Ubik process at the site is functioning correctly, \&\f(CW0\fR if it is not. .IP "\(bu" 4 \&\f(CW\*(C`beaconSince\*(C'\fR is \f(CW1\fR if the site has responded to the coordinator's last request for votes, \f(CW0\fR if it has not. .PP Including the \fB\-long\fR flag produces peer entries even when the \&\fB\-server\fR argument names a secondary site, but in that case only the \&\fIIP_address\fR field is guaranteed to be accurate. For example, the value in the field is usually \f(CW0.0\fR, because secondary sites do not poll their peers for this information. The values in the \fIlast_vote\fR and \fIlast_beacon\fR fields indicate when this site last received or requested a vote as coordinator; they generally indicate the time of the last coordinator election. .SH "EXAMPLES" .IX Header "EXAMPLES" This example checks the status of the Ubik process for the Volume Location Server on the machine \f(CW\*(C`afs1\*(C'\fR, which is the synchronization site. .PP .Vb 10 \& % udebug afs1 vlserver \& Host\*(Aqs addresses are: 192.12.107.33 \& Host\*(Aqs 192.12.107.33 time is Wed Oct 27 09:49:50 1999 \& Local time is Wed Oct 27 09:49:52 1999 (time differential 2 secs) \& Last yes vote for 192.12.107.33 was 1 secs ago (sync site); \& Last vote started 1 secs ago (at Wed Oct 27 09:49:51 1999) \& Local db version is 940902602.674 \& I am sync site until 58 secs from now (at Wed Oct 27 09:50:50 1999) (3 servers) \& Recovery state 1f \& Sync site\*(Aqs db version is 940902602.674 \& 0 locked pages, 0 of them for write \& Last time a new db version was labelled was: \& 129588 secs ago (at Mon Oct 25 21:50:04 1999) \& \& Server( 192.12.107.35 ): (db 940902602.674) \& last vote rcvd 2 secs ago (at Wed Oct 27 09:49:50 1999), \& last beacon sent 1 secs ago (at Wed Oct 27 09:49:51 1999), last vote was yes \& dbcurrent=1, up=1 beaconSince=1 \& \& Server( 192.12.107.34 ): (db 940902602.674) \& last vote rcvd 2 secs ago (at Wed Oct 27 09:49:50 1999), \& last beacon sent 1 secs ago (at Wed Oct 27 09:49:51 1999), last vote was yes \& dbcurrent=1, up=1 beaconSince=1 .Ve .PP This example checks the status of the Authentication Server on the machine with \s-1IP\s0 address 192.12.107.34, which is a secondary site.
