Measures reported by FCCluNwConnTest

A failover cluster requires network connectivity among nodes and between clients and nodes. Problems with a network adapter or Ethernet ports or other network device (either physical problems or configuration problems) can interfere with connectivity. Administrators should therefore check the connectivity status of the network adapters/devices/Ethernet ports round the clock to avoid failure of the failover cluster. The FCCluNwConnTest test helps administrators in this regard!

This test reports the current network connection state of each Ethernet port in the failover cluster. Using this test, administrators can proactively detect abnormalities in the failover cluster and maintain communication between the clients and nodes within the cluster.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
State Indicates the current network conection status of each Ethernet port in this cluster.   The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate have been listed in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Up 100
Unavailable 70
Failed 50
Unreachable 30
Unknown 10

Note:

By default, this measure can report the Measure Values mentioned above while indicating the current network connection state of each Ethernet port. However, the graph of this measure is indicated using the numeric equivalents.

The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the name of the network, the name of the adapter, the ID of the network adapter and the IP address.
