Rule result types
Running a rule generates output that shows the status of the objects that have
been examined against the rule:
INFO Information about the specified object; for example “RAID-5
does not have a log.”
PASS The object met the conditions of the rule.
VIOLATION The object did not meet the conditions of the rule.
Setting rule attributes
You can set attributes in the following ways:
■ Enter an attribute on the command line, for example:
# vxse_drl2 -g mydg run large_mirror_size=30m
■ Create your own defaults file, and specify that file on the command line:
# vxse_drl2 -d mydefaultsfile run
Lines in this file contain attribute values definitions for a rule in this
format:
rule_name,attribute=value
For example, the following entry defines a value of 20 gigabytes for the
attribute large_mirror_size of the rule vxse_drl2:
vxse_drl2,large_mirror_size=20g
You can specify values that are to be ignored by inserting a # character at
the start of the line, for example:
#vxse_drl2,large_mirror_size=20g
■ Edit the attribute values that are defined in the /etc/default/vxse file.
If you do this, make a backup copy of the file in case you need to regress your
changes.
Attributes are applied using the following order of precedence from highest to
lowest:
