GOAL

HowtoidentifyLUNpresentedfromSANwithunderlyingOSdiskandfindWWIDofLUN

SOLUTION

Firstoption

ExecutecommandbelowcommandtoobtainVendor,ModelandPort,Channel,SCSIID,LUN

#cat/proc/scsi/scsi

Host:scsi4Channel:00Id:00Lun:00
Vendor:IBMModel:1750500Rev:5.17
Type:DirectAccessANSISCSIrevision:05
Host:scsi4Channel:00Id:00Lun:01
Vendor:IBMModel:1750500Rev:5.17
Type:DirectAccessANSISCSIrevision:05

Thenbelowcommandcanbeused

#lsld/sys/block/sd*/device

lrwxrwxrwx1rootroot0Jun821:09/sys/block/sda/device>
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host4/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0
lrwxrwxrwx1rootroot0Jun821:10/sys/block/sdb/device>
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host4/target1:0:0/1:0:0:0

TogetaswellWWIDofLUNtolocaldiskmappingbelowcommandcanbeused:

#lsla/dev/disk/byid/

scsi3600508b400105e210000900000490000>../../dm1

Nowitseasiertounderstandthatdm1hasWWID3600508b400105e210000900000490000

Secondoption

Anotherwayistousesg3utilscommand

#yuminstallsg3utils

#sg_scani

/dev/sg2:scsi1channel=0id=0lun=1[em]type=0

SanDiskImageMateCFSM0100[wide=0sync=0cmdq=0sftre=0pq=0x0]

Abovecommandwillgivemappingfordevices

Thenexecute

#sg_mapx

/dev/sg200200/dev/sdc

Nowitcanbeeasilydeterminedthatsg2(SANDISK)isactually/dev/sdcdevice

Thirdoption

Ifmultipathisbeingused(devicemapper)belowcommandcanbeused:

#multipathv4ll


mpathc(360000970000195900437533030382310)dm1EMC,SYMMETRIX
