The Check PDE/DBS Status step checks the status on the TPA node results from the Gather PDE/DBS Status step to make sure that nothing critical has changed since the operation was started. If any problems are found the results are displayed.
The following table lists the tests performed by the Check PDE/DBS Status step, the error message displayed, and an example of what the problem may be.
| Test that checks for: | Error | Example |
|---|---|---|
| PDE state of a node has changed | One or more nodes no longer have the same state that existed at the start of the operation. | When the operation began, a node was DOWN/HARDSTOP but is now RUN/STARTED. |
| mpplist count matches | One or more nodes no longer have the same number of nodes in the mpplist. | When the operation began there were four nodes in the mpplist and now there are only three. |
