Viewing Device Status and the ES Header on Linux

After you guard a device, you can view the status of that device using the voradmin esg [xform] status <device-name> command, where:

• xform (optional). If you specify this option, CTE shows the status of any data transformation processes happening on the device. If you do not specify this option, CTE displays the ES Header for the device.

• <device-name> (required). The standard Linux name of the device whose status you want to view. (For example, /dev/sdh.)

For example, if you want to view the ES Header for the Linux device /dev/sdh, you would enter:

 voradmin esg status /dev/sdh
ESG Header on /dev/secvm/dev/sdh
    Version:                1
    Change:                 0
    Notifications:          None
    Storage Status:         None
    Private Region Size:    129024 sectors
    Exported Device Size:   20842496 sectors
    Key UUID:               2c3ee4af-010c-3593-898e-f2f62d29222d
    Mount Path:             None

If you want to view the data transformation status on /dev/sdh, you would enter:

 voradmin esg xform status /dev/sdh
    Status:            In-Progress
    Relocation Zone 22939646 (relocated = 1)
    SegSpc 27, Xformation Range: 3217 ... 4799, SegIDs: 4795 4796 4791 4792... 
    KeyID:      988905 Key Name: ESG_DEMO_KEY_1
    Old KeyID:  0      Key Name: clear_key

The Status field displays In-Progress if a data transformation process is running, and Completed if the process has finished.
