    Hi Team

    I would like to take your assistance to get the Delphix Engines Auto connection check

    We have around 4 VE and 5 Masking engines running with 12.00/ 13.00 version and I have tried using Dxtoolkit command dx_connectivity_check to check engines( Virtual engines) connectivity one at a time, but not all once. Not sure why its not working for us. I have raised another discussion for that.  And no where I found a command for Masking engines check in Dxmtoolkit. 

    But my ask is, is there any best solution to check Delphix engines ( VE and Masking) online status by any script? in single shot? and generates the report. Please suggest .

    The virtualisation and the masking are two separate applications .. therefore no, there is not one call to check both services.
    The DXM toolkit does not have a "test" to check if service is alive > but you could build something using :
     ./dxmc environment list --engine TEST
    Response: Can't login to engine TEST (IP: ......)

    Hi Karteek,

    "dx_connectivity_check" is not really designed to test network connectivity to the Delphix Engine itself. Its purpose is to test connectivity from the Delphix Engine to another host/port.

    If you want a basic command that just connects to the Delphix Engine you could try "dx_get_appliance" and see if that suits your purposes:

    % ./dx_get_appliance --all     
    Can't check session status. Engine Landshark2 (IP: delphix02 ) could be down.

    Hi Neal

    Thank you for the solution, the given command is working fine for virtualization engines as per our expectations. but how about the Masking engines ?
