Commands
vsping
Pings the VolServ system.
The vsping command allows a user to check the availability of
VolServ (in other words, a means for the client systems to
“ping” the VolServ system.) If VolServ responds to the vsping,
it is assumed by the client that the VolServ client interface is
available and functioning.
The client is not required to use the vsping command before
sending other commands, but vsping is available for clients to
verify that VolServ software is running.
• If no options are specified, vsping tries to ping the VolServ
system on the host machine at VolServ’s default program
number.
Parameters

[ -Ih ]
[ -H hostname ]
[ -V prognum ]
Parameters
Note
The vsping command supports no command-specific
options.
Parameter Description

command line. VolServ then reads any
options contained in the stdin file.
