  • OK: The node is working and there are no errors.

  • Alert, Warning: The node or volume has experienced one or more errors. Click the IP Address link to drill down to the node and view the related error.

  • Initializing: The short state after a node boot when it is reading cluster persisted settings and is not quite ready to accept requests.

  • Maintenance: The node has been shut down or rebooted by an administrator from either SNMP or the legacy Admin Console and should not be considered missing for recovery purposes. By default, a node can be in a Maintenance state for 3 hours before it transitions to Offline and the cluster starts recovery of its content. Maintenance mode is not initialized when the power is manually cycled on the node outside of Swarm (either physically on the hardware or via a remote shutdown mechanism like iDRAC) or if there is a disk error; in both these instances, recovery processes are started for the node unless recovery is suspended.

  • Mounting: The node is mounting one or more volumes, including formatting the disk if it is new and reading all objects on the volume into the RAM index for faster access.

  • Offline: The node or volume was previously but is no longer present in the cluster.

  • Retiring: The node or volume is in the process of retiring, verifying all objects are fully protected elsewhere in the cluster and then removing them locally.

  • Retired: The node or volume has completed the retiring process and may be removed from the cluster.

  • Idle: The nodes or volumes are in power-saving mode due to a period of configurable inactivity. (See Configuring Power Management.)
