Issue the cm getpreferences command to display the Cache Manager's preferences for File Server of FL Server, as follows:
$ cm getpreferencs [-path filename] [-numeric] [-fldb]
The -path filename option specifies a file to which the command is to write its output. Omit this option to display the preferences on standard output.
The -numeric option directs the command to display the IP addresses rather than the host names of the server machines connections. Omit this option to display the host names.
The -fldb option directs the command to display the FL Server machine connections and their respective ranks and not File Servers.
The command produces output of the following form for each server connection preference:
hostname rank
For example
fl2.abc.com 25000
In the output, hostname is the host name of a File or FL Server, and rank is the machine's numeric preferene rank. Note that hostname is replaced with the machine's IP address if the Cache Manager cannot presently determine the host name or if the -numeric option is included with the command.
