```
View the sensor status:
```
appl-hostname # show mvx status
```

Examples

The following example shows the status of a virtual sensor.

VNX-4 # show mvx status

MVX Mode Status:
    Sensor Config Enabled  : yes
    Current Operating Mode : sensor
    Mode Reboot Required   : no
    Submission Interface   : ether1
    Modes Supported        : mvx sensor-only
    Virtual Model          : yes
    Virtual System         : yes
    WSAPI Current State    : running

The following example shows the status of a physical integrated Network Security
appliance that was enabled as a sensor.

Output fields

Field	Description
Sensor Config Enabled	Whether the appliance is enabled as a sensor.
Current Operating Mode	Current operating mode (sensor, hybrid, or integrated).
Mode Reboot Required	Whether you need to reload the appliance after changing the operating mode for the change to take effect.
Submission Interface	Name of the interface used for communication between the sensor and broker.
Modes Supported	Operating mode for this appliance model: mvx configurable—The appliance has an MVX engine. It can operate as an integrated appliance, in which its own MVX engine performs the analysis. It can also be converted to sensor mode, in which it submits objects to an IVX cluster instead of its own MVX engine, or to hybrid mode, in which it submits objects to an IVX cluster when a predefined capacity threshold is reached. mvx sensor-only—The appliance has no MVX engine, and must submit objects to an IVX cluster for analysis. mvx integrated-only—The appliance cannot submit objects to an IVX cluster and must use its own IVX engine for analysis.
Virtual Model	Whether this is a virtual appliance model.
Virtual System	Whether this is a virtual software image.
WSAPI Current State	The state of the Web services API process (running or not running)
Detailed Health Information
Submission Client (MVX_ SC) Ok	Whether the submission client is running: yes. Healthy—The submission client is running. **** —The submission client is not available.
