IRIS Mirror Status from Linux server command line
I want to get Mirror Status and copy this report into a file for audit purposes.
I have a Linux servers for IRIS DB with this layout:
LIVETC01 Backup
LIVETC02 Primary
LIVEDR Async Copy
ARBITER
I understand that this will get me the mirror status
# sudo -u irisowner iris session LIVETC01
LIVETC01:USER>zn "%SYS"
LIVETC01:%SYS>do ^MIRROR
1) Mirror Status
2) Mirror Management
3) Mirror Configuration
Option? 1
1) List mirrored databases
2) Display mirror status of this node
3) Display journal file info
4) Status Monitor
Option? 4

Question
========
Is it possible to do the same procedure from the OS Linux command line as a single command without the user interaction?
Auditing will be done by appending the output to a file.
Try something like
iris session LIVETC01 -U "%SYS" "Monitor^MIRROR"Do you know if there is a way of entering username & password from Linux command line?
Hopefully securely as well eg. like Windows credential store
The advice is -- enable OS authentication for the %Service_Terminal. And add the OS user that runs the script to the IRIS.
I'm not aware of secure way of passing credentials for IRIS password users.

Just another option
I monitor the mirror status from a background job in %SYS and this outputs various server details it uses the %SYSTEM.Mirror class.

You may do it programmatically:
set mirrorName=$lg(##class(%SYSTEM.Mirror).GetMirrorNames(),1)
zn "%SYS"
Set result = ##class(%ResultSet).%New("SYS.Mirror:MemberStatusList")
Set sc = result.Execute(mirrorName)
while result.Next() {
s status=result.GetData(9) // get all other info you need from GetData(nnn)
}
Thanks to all!
