Probing a resource

Probe a resource to confirm that it is properly configured and ready to bring online.

To probe a resource

1. In the Cluster:Resources view, in the Resources Listing table, click the linked name of the resource that you want to probe.
2. In the Resource:Summary view, in the Operations task panel, click Probe.
3. In the Probe Resource dialog box, select the system on which you want to probe the specified resource from the drop-down menu and then click OK.

   The dialog box displays a message indicating success or failure. Success indicates that the resource is properly configured and, if not already online, is ready to be brought online.
