Without the brief option, the show cluster global command displays additional information
about each node in the cluster. Instead of using an asterisk to designate the local node ID, this
display uses the label <--- (local node).
Example of show cluster global:
Configuring the PCIe Connection
If the Violin 6000 Memory Array is set up in a direct-attached configuration using PCIe cables, you
must configure the PCIe connection using the CLI. Use the show pcie command to display the
PCIe connection information.
Note: It is unnecessary to modify the PCIe configuration for Memory Arrays with internal Memory
Gateways. The PCIe configuration is already set at the factory.
Follow these steps to access the pcie command and configure the PCIe connection.
1. Start a terminal application and enter the host name of the Memory Array or the ACM
Management IP address (assigned during initial configuration).
