server should show a very small number of bytes of metadata received for the
same node. If the node’s session exhibits this behavior, the data movement is

LAN-free.

Note: During a failover where the storage agent is sending data directly to the

server by proxy because it cannot store the data directly, the QUERY
SESSION statistics on the server will show a much higher byte count.

v Issue either of the following QUERY ACTLOG commands on the server to

which the client is connected:
query actlog search=storage_agent_name msgno=8337
query actlog search=storage_agent_name
If the query finds entries in the activity log that relates to the storage agent, the

client is using LAN-free data transfer.
