Get Device UID (naa) from datastore

[jonathanvh]

Hi,

I want to get the Device UID (naa) from a datastore (VcHostDatastoreSystem).

But I don't seem to find it.

Can someone help me with this?

Kind regards,

Jonathan

Take a look at the code in this post: Get the scsi information for a datastore if the datastore name is known

I used that as a starting point for the following.. I placed this code in a scriptable task and passed in a VC:HostSystem object named "wfHostObject":

for each (var lun in wfHostObject.configManager.storageSystem.storageDeviceInfo.multipathInfo.lun) {
    for each (var path in lun.path) {
        if (path.state == "active") {
            // Get the mountinfo
            for each (var mount in wfHostObject.configManager.storageSystem.fileSystemVolumeInfo.mountInfo) {
                if (mount.volume.hasOwnProperty("extent")) {
                    for each (var extent in mount.volume.extent) {                   
                        var tmp = extent.diskName.split(/\./);                   
                        var regExp = new RegExp(tmp[1],'gi');
                        if (lun.id.match(regExp)) {
                            System.debug("=========== Mount Name: "+mount.volume.name);
  System.debug("Type: "+mount.volume.type);
                            System.debug("Extent diskName: "+extent.diskName);
  System.debug("vStorageSupport: "+mount.vStorageSupport);
  System.debug("---- Mount Info");
  var mountInfo = mount.mountInfo;
  System.debug("AccessMode: "+mountInfo.accessMode);
  System.debug("Accessible: "+mountInfo.accessible);
  System.debug("Inaccessible Reason: "+mountInfo.inaccessibleReason);
  System.debug("Mounted: "+mountInfo.mounted);
  System.debug("Path: "+mountInfo.path);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Sample Output:
