Viewing the Status of a Communication Path

*This documentation section describes the LifeKeeper Web Management Console (LKWMC). Refer to the LifeKeeper Web Management Console for an overview.

Clicking the Communication Path menu item in the Server section of the left menu will display a list of all communication paths along with status information.

Each line of the communication path table displays the following information.

• Priority - Communication path priority. The priority value determines the order in which the communication paths are used for communication between the servers. Valid communication path priority values range from 1 to 99, with priority value 1 indicating highest priority and priority value 99 indicating lowest priority.
• Type - Communication path type. The LKWMC only supports creation of TCP (TCP/IP) communication paths.
• Status - Current state of the communication path. The possible values are:
  • ALIVE
    The communication path is functioning normally.
  • DEAD
    The communication path is in a disconnected state. LifeKeeper heartbeats are not being sent or received over this communication path within the specified interval.
  • UNKNOWN
    The state of the communication path could not be determined.
