NAME¶
mkqdisk - Cluster Quorum Disk Utility
WARNING¶
Use of this command can cause the cluster to malfunction.
SYNOPSIS¶
mkqdisk [-?|-h] | [-L] | [-f label
] [-c device
-l
label
] [-d [-d ...]]
DESCRIPTION¶
The
mkqdisk command is used to create a new quorum disk or display
existing quorum disks accessible from a given cluster node.
OPTIONS¶
- -c device -l label
- Initialize a new cluster quorum disk. This will destroy all data on the
given device. If a cluster is currently using that device as a quorum
disk, the entire cluster will malfunction. Do not run this on an active
cluster when qdiskd is running. Only one device on the SAN should ever
have the given label; using multiple different devices is currently not
supported (it is expected a RAID array is used for quorum disk
redundancy). The label can be any textual string up to 127 characters -
and is therefore enough space to hold a UUID created with uuidgen(1).
- -f label
- Find the cluster quorum disk with the given label and display information
about it.
- -L
- Display information on all accessible cluster quorum disks.
- -d
- Increase debugging level. Specify multiple times for more information.
Currently, specifying more than twice has no effect.
