NAME
watch-devicegroup-device - Displays information about the devices in
the device group to which the local device belongs.
MODULE
cm
SYNTAX
Run the watch-devicegroup-device program within the cm module using the
syntax shown in the following sections.
RUN
run watch-devicegroup-device
DESCRIPTION
You can use the watch-devicegroup-device program to view dynamic
information about the synchronization of the devices in the device
group to which the local device belongs. You can use this information
to monitor or troubleshoot the devices.
By default, multiple devices with identical information are collapsed
into a single row that displays in green. The devices column identifies
the devices by the suffix of the configuration synchronization IP
address configured on the device. For example, if the devices in a
device group have the IP addresses 10.0.0.15 and 10.0.0.16, the IDs in
this column will be 15 and 16. Use the c (collapse) command to
deactivate/activate this behavior.
For example, when you make a change to a device, the change is
identified by a commit ID (cid.id) that displays when you run the
watch-devicegroup-device program.
Within the program, you can use the following keys:
Press h to see a list of available commands.
Press the back tick key (`) to exit the help page.
Press c to toggle the view from a collapsed view to a full view. The
command gathers information from every device in the trust group. When
all devices in the trust group report the same information the view is
collapsed and one line, highlighted in green, displays the information.
The devices included in the line are shown in the devices column. You
can press c to see the full view, which displays each device on a
separate line.
Press Ctrl-C to exit the program.
Press the arrow keys to navigate across the columns or down the rows.
The content in the columns includes:
devices
Displays the suffix of the configuration synchronization IP
address configured on the device. For example, if the devices in a
device group have the config-sync IP addresses 10.0.0.15 and
10.0.0.16, the IDs in this column will be 15 and 16.
devgroup
Displays the name of the device group to which the device belongs.
Note: This can be a sync-only, failover, or trust device group.
device
Displays the device object name.
cid.id
Displays the commit ID, which is a configuration change
identifier.
cid-orig
Displays the name of the device on which the configuration change
was made.
cid.time
Displays the time the configuration change was made.
last_sync
Displays the time the device configuration was last synchronized
with the device group.
The devices in the to-group of a configuration synchronization
display the same time in this column. The local device that pushes
the configuration to the other devices in the device group (to-
group) has a different value in this column.
The devices in the from-group of a configuration synchronization
display the same time in this column. The local device that
receives the configuration from the other devices has a different
value in this column. You can use this information to determine a
rollback strategy.
