The state of a server can be determined by looking at the graphic representation of the server in the table’s header as shown below.
| Server State | Visual state | What it Means |
|---|---|---|
| ALIVE |  |
Client has valid connection to the server. Comm paths originating from this server to an ALIVE remote server are ALIVE. Comm paths which may be marked DEAD and which target a DEAD server are ignored because the DEAD server will be reflected in its own graphic. |
| ALIVE |  |
Client has valid connection to the server. One or more comm paths from this server to a given remote server are marked as DEAD. No redundant comm path exists from this server to a given remote server. |
| DEAD |  |
Reported as DEAD by other servers in the cluster. |
| UNKNOWN |  |
Network connection was lost. Last known LifeKeeper state is ALIVE. |
