NAME
tping - Send echo messages to LAM nodes.
SYNOPSIS
|
tping [-hv] [-c count] [-d delay] [-l length] nodes |
|
-h |
Print the command help menu. |
|||
|
-v |
Turn OFF verbose mode. |
|||
|
-c count |
Send count messages. |
|||
|
-d delay |
Delay delay seconds between each message. |
|||
|
-l length |
Each message is length bytes long. |
DESCRIPTION
The tping command sends messages to, and collects replies from, a list of nodes, via the LAM echo server. It is similar to the UNIX ping(8) command, and is used as a quick diagnosis of the LAM network.
Unless options are specified, tping sends a 1 byte message an infinite number of times, displaying the roundtrip time of each message as it completes, with a delay of 1 second between roundtrips. After the loop is broken (with keyboard interrupt, eg: ˆC), tping prints statistics about all roundtrip messages.
EXAMPLES
tping h
Echo messages to the local node.
tping -v n7 -l 1000 -c 10
Echo 1000 byte messages to node 7. Stay silent while working. Stop after 10 roundtrips and report statistics.
BUGS
There is no built-in timeout and tping will wait forever to receive an echo. If no echo is received, due to a dead link or node, tping hangs. Stop the process with a keyboard suspend signal (eg: ˆZ) and terminate LAM with lamhalt(1) or lamwipe(1) (although the use of lamwipe(1) is deprecated).
