D.3. Using the cludiskutil Utility

Test the quorum partitions and ensure that they are accessible by invoking the cludiskutil utility with the -t option.

The following example shows that the quorum partitions refer to the same physical device on two cluster systems (devel0 and devel1):

/sbin/cludiskutil -p
----- Shared State Header ------
Magic# = 0x39119fcd
Version = 1
Updated on Thu Sep 14 05:43:18 2000
Updated by node 0
--------------------------------


/sbin/cludiskutil -p
----- Shared State Header ------
Magic# = 0x39119fcd
Version = 1
Updated on Thu Sep 14 05:43:18 2000
Updated by node 0
--------------------------------

The Magic# and Version fields will be the same for all cluster configurations. The last two lines of output indicate the date that the quorum partitions were initialized with cludiskutil -I, and the numeric identifier for the cluster system that invoked the initialization command.

If the output of the cludiskutil utility with the -p option is not the same on both cluster systems, perform the following:

After performing these tasks, re-run the cludiskutil utility with the -p option.
