--- title: "Monitoring the Distribution and Upgrade Status" canonical: "https://docs.infoblox.com/space/niosupgrade/1320354139/Monitoring%20the%20Distribution%20and%20Upgrade%20Status" format: markdown --- During a distribution or an upgrade, Grid Manager displays the status of the distribution or upgrade in the status bar. It also displays the process status for each member. You can view the status in either the Member List view or Group List view from the **Grid** tab > **Upgrade** tab. When you perform a distribution or an upgrade, the status bar displays the overall Grid distribution status with a progress bar that describes the process being performed. The status bar also displays the number of members that have completed the distribution or upgrade. A difference between a distribution and an upgrade process is that during an upgrade, the Grid Manager session terminates when an HA Grid Master fails over from Node 1 to Node 2, or when a single Grid Master reboots and goes offline. You can log back in to the appliance after the upgrade. # Grid and Member Status During Upgrade You can view the distribution and upgrade process status at the Grid and member level. To view the process status, from the **Grid** tab, select the **Upgrade** tab, and then click **Toggle** **Member** **View**. The status bar displays the status of the overall Grid process. It contains a progress bar that indicates the percentage of completion. It also shows the number of members that have completed the process. Grid Manager displays the following information for each member: - **Member**: The name of the Grid member. - **Group**: The upgrade group to which the member belongs. - **HA**: Indicates whether the member is an HA pair or not. - **Status**: The current distribution or upgrade status. This can be Running (green) or Offline (red). - **IPv4** **Address**: The IPv4 address of the member. - **IPv6** **Address**: The IPv6 address of the member. - **Running** **Version**: The NIOS software version that is currently running on the member. - **Alternate** **Version**: Displays the NIOS software version to which the appliance can revert. - **Distribution/Upgrade** **Status**: From NIOS 9.0.6 onwards, NIOS displays the current distribution or upgrade status. When the distribution or upgrade is in progress, Grid Manager displays a progress bar in this field to indicate the percentage of completion. Click the Upgrade Detailed Status icon to view details of the upgrade status. The *Upgrade Detailed Status* window displays the upgrade status such as percentage of completion, number of files copied and so on of each component. It also displays error messages in case of any errors encountered during the upgrade of each component. For an HA setup, NIOS displays the status of both the active and passive nodes. If some of the component fields are not updated even after the distribution is complete, it means that for that particular Grid member, the data were optional. The following data are displayed: - **Rsync status**: Status of the rsync process including the total number of files downloaded and the percentage of completion. If there are errors during the download process, the error is displayed. - **Nios_root:** Status of copying the NIOS root directory to the alternate partition. - **Optional_service**: Status of copying optional service files such as discovery, analytics, and so on that are selectively rsynced to members. - **Storage**: Status of copying the storage files. - **Backup_mnt_storage**: Status of backing up a small number of files from /infoblox to /storage/root_storage/infoblox on the alternate partitions. Sometimes, the output of the `show log debug follow /UPGRADE_STATUS/` CLI command (run in the Admin Console) may display 0/0 during the file transfer. You can ignore this. If the completion percentage is 100, it indicates that rsync has succeeded, regardless of the status of Total Files, Files Completed, and Bytes RSynced. - **Hotfix**: The name of the hotfix that was last run on the member. - **Status** **Time**: The date, time, and time zone of the status displayed. - **Member** **Reverted**: Indicates whether the member has been reverted or not. This appears only when the member has been upgraded. - **Time** **to** **Revert**: The time (in HH:MM:SS format) left to revert a member. This appears only when the member has been upgraded. - **Site**: The location to which the member belongs. This is one of the predefined extensible attributes. The appliance automatically refreshes the information in this panel. # Upgrade Group Status You can view the distribution or upgrade status of an upgrade group in the group list view. In this view, the distribution or upgrade status rolls up to the group level. You can expand an upgrade group to view the status of individual member. However, you cannot view detailed status of a selected member from this view. To view the process status of an upgrade group, from the **Grid** tab, select the **Upgrade** tab, and then click **Toggle** **Group** **List** **View**. Grid Manager displays the following information for each member in an upgrade group: - **Group**: The upgrade group to which the member belongs. - **Member**: The name of the Grid member. - **Status**: The current member status. This can be Running (green) or Offline (red). - **IPv4** **Address**: The IPv4 address of the member appliance. - **IPv6** **Address**: The IPv6 address of the member appliance. - **Running** **Version**: The NIOS software version that is currently running on the member. - **Distribution** **Status**: The current distribution status. For an upgrade group, Grid Manager displays a progress bar to indicate the overall percentage of completion. For a member, Grid Manager displays the state of the distribution process. - **Timestamp**: The date, time, and time zone of the status displayed. # Detailed Grid Distribution Status You can view detailed status about the Grid distribution during a distribution or an upgrade: 1. From the **Grid** tab, select the **Upgrade** tab, and then click **Toggle** **Member** **View**. 2. Click the Detailed Status icon. Grid Manager displays a panel that shows the different phases of a distribution or an upgrade along with the status of each phase. It also displays a color indicator next to each phase, to indicate the current status. The color indicator can be one of the following: - Grey: The process has not started yet. - Green: The process is complete. - Blue: The distribution or upgrade that is in progress. - Red: There is an error; Grid Manager displays a description of the problem. - Yellow: A warning message. When the selected member is an HA pair, Grid Manager displays the status information for both nodes. The panel remains open until you close it or select a different member.
