Hi guys,

any of you manage to find a quick way to list all the WWN of the LUN
especially when provisioning new LUN to servers/vm the WWN is important..

other systems its easy to get the wwn via a single line command..
so far i'm doing on vol --info LUNNAME | grep Serial

is there a easier way to do it ?

That looks like the way I remember finding it last time (a while ago, pre lock down :roll: ).
I can't remember what I was looking for but I did manage to get some useful results from the powershell interface, so you could give that a try.

hi an update and to share with you guys

get WWN via vol --list by keyword

Nimble OS $ vol=$(vol --list | awk '{print $1}' | grep VolName); for i in ${vol[*]}; do echo $i; vol --info $i | grep Serial; done

can also sort by folder

Nimble OS $ vol=$(vol --list --folder XXX | awk '{print $1}'); for i in ${vol[*]}; do echo $i; vol --info $i | grep Serial; done

This has things like the device serial number (sometimes called a WWN). This, in combination with the vendor Organizational Uinque
