LUN IDs

Hi,

How to identify the EMC LUN ID in esx 3.5? I'm using EMC Symmetrix storage. Symmetrix assign 4 characters (in Hex) as LUN ID, but i don't see this in my ESX 3.5 servers.

Thanks,

Would any of the EMC vCenter plugins work here?

I'm not using any EMC vCenter plugins. Is there any way I can tell which datastores from which EMC LUNs?

Open an SSH connection (or if ESXi go to console, hit F1, type unsupported)

at the prompt type :

powermt display dev=all | more


One day I will virtualise myself . . .
