Checking Pmode RDM Configuration

How can I use PowerCLI to check to see if pmode RDMs are mapped / zoned properly everywhere in a cluster, so that they can run on any host and still see the LUN they need to connect to?

In fact it checks both, and it lists the LUNs visible to an ESXi node that are not in use.

Would my LUN report – datastore, RDM and node visibility post answer the question ?

It has more info than just RDMs, but it shows the visibility on each cluster node.

This is a good report.

One question though:

When it checks for visible LUNs, is it checking for LUNs which are PMODE RDMs and claimed by the VM which is using them, or is it only checking the LUNs used by the ESXI hosts as datastores?
