# Nodetool status

**status** - This command prints the cluster information for a single keyspace or all keyspaces.

The keyspace argument is required to calculate effective ownership information (`Owns` column).
For tablet keyspaces, a table is also required for effective ownership.

For example:

```default
nodetool status my_keyspace
```

Example output:

```console
Datacenter: datacenter1

Nodes in the excluded status (`X`) are down nodes which were marked as excluded
by `removenode`, `excludenode`` or node replace, and means that they are considered permanently lost.
See [nodetool excludenode](https://docs.scylladb.com/manual/master/operating-scylla/nodetool-commands/excludenode.md) for more information.
