Few Random Solaris Commands : intrstat, croinfo, dlstat, fmstat, ibv_devinfo & hotplug

Target: Solaris 11 and later. Some of these commands may work on earlier versions too.

Interrupt Statistics : intrstat utility

intrstat utility can be used to monitor interrupt activity generated by various hardware devices along with the CPU that serviced the interrupt and the CPU time spent in servicing those interrupts on a system. On a busy system, intrstat reported stats may help figure out which devices are busy at work, and keeping the system busy with interrupts.

eg.,

.. [idle system] showing the interrupt activity on first two vCPUs ..

# intrstat -c 0-1 5

      device |      cpu0 %tim      cpu1 %tim

Physical Location of Disk : croinfo & diskinfo commands

Both croinfo and diskinfo commands provide information about the chassis, receptacle, and occupant relative to all disks or a specific disk. Note that croinfo and diskinfo utilities share the same executable binary and function in a identical manner. The main difference being the defaults used by each of the utilities.

eg.,

# croinfo
D:devchassis-path               t:occupant-type  c:occupant-compdev

Monitoring Network Traffic Statistics : dlstat command

dlstat command reports network traffic statistics for all datalinks or a specific datalink on a system.

eg.,

# dlstat -i 5 net0
           LINK    IPKTS   RBYTES    OPKTS   OBYTES
           net0  163.12M   39.93G  206.14M   43.63G
           net0      312  196.59K      146  370.80K
           net0      198  172.18K      121  121.98K
           net0      168   91.23K       93  195.57K

Fault Management : fmstat utility

Solaris Fault Manager gathers and diagnoses problems detected by the system software, and initiates self-healing activities such as disabling faulty components. fmstat utility can be used to check the statistics associated with the Fault Manager.

fmadm config lists out all active fault management modules that are currently participating in fault management. -m option can be used to report the diagnostic statistics related to a specific fault management module. fmstat without any option report stats from all fault management modules.

eg.,

# fmstat 5
module             ev_recv ev_acpt wait  svc_t  %w  %b  open solve  memsz  bufsz
cpumem-retire            0       0  1.0 8922.5  96   0     0     0    12b      0

InfiniBand devices : List & Show Information about each device

ibv_devices lists out all available IB devices whereas ibv_devinfo shows information about all devices or a specific IB device.

eg.,

# ibv_devices

PCIe Hot-Plugging : hotplug command

When the hotplug service is enabled on a Solaris system, hotplug command to bring hot pluggable devices online or offline without physically adding or removing the device from the system.

The following command lists out the all physical [hotplug] connectors along with the current status.

eg.,

# hotplug list -c
Connection           State           Description
________________________________________________________________________________
IOU2-EMS2            ENABLED         PCIe-Native
IOU2-PCIE6           ENABLED         PCIe-Native
IOU2-PCIE7           EMPTY           PCIe-Native
IOU2-PCIE4           EMPTY           PCIe-Native
IOU2-PCIE1           EMPTY           PCIe-Native

For detailed instructions to hotplug a device, check the Solaris documentation out.
