Subject:master-slave - The Answer From:Miki Magyar <MDM0857 -at- MCDATA -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 18 Sep 1997 16:28:58 -0600
Shhhh.... watch your step.
In the system I'm documenting right now there is a 'show' command that
returns a lot of status information. And if you ask the right unit in the
system, it tells you
I am the master.
I am Unit 2.
At least it doesn't tell you that you're the slave - but I guess it doesn't
need to. I know where my bread comes from.
