I am pretty much confused by different naming standards for storage in vSphere. Can some one help me understand naming conentions? I am trying to create following table to understand it better.
Property | NAA ID | UID | IQN | datastore names | vml name/number |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Type | Static / Dynamic | ||||
Length | xx bit | ||||
Assigned to | LUN | ||||
Assigned by | |||||
Example | naa.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
Have you managed to read this documentation yet;
Yes, but still it adds to confusion, with one more naming type (run time name)
This may help as well;
I have come up with following table, after going though a lot of material.
Please let me know if you have some more information to add to it.
