Some sybcluster commands are available before you connect to a cluster; others are available only after you connect to a cluster, see Table 15-1.
The sybcluster prompt lets you know whether or not sybcluster is connected to a cluster, and the default cluster and instance if either or both of these have been set.
When sybcluster is not connected to a cluster, the prompt is:
>
After you have connected to a cluster, the prompt becomes:
cluster_name>
For example:
mycluster>
If you declare a default instance, the prompt is:
cluster_name instance_name>
For example:
mycluster ase1>
