mlisten
mlisten — display multicast pings from the ParaStation daemon psid(8)
Synopsis
mlisten
Description
Display the multicast pings the ParaStation daemon psid(8) is emitting continuously. These pings are displayed by spinning bars.
Each ping received from node N lets the Nth bar spin around one more step. For each node never received a multicast ping from a '.' is displayed.
ParaStation by default no longer uses multicast messages. Thus, no multicast messages will be ever received and displayed using the default configuration!
