Get controller or LUN WWN / WWID under HP-UX
Reading the World Wide Name (WWN) / World Wide Identifier (WWID) of a controller or a LUN is not always easy unter HP-UX - depending on the release. Especially under the older releases 11.11 and 11.23 additional tools are required to get the requested information - this is much easier under 11.31.
Controller information
Using ioscan
a overview about mounted Fibre-channel cards:
1# ioscan -fnkCfc
2Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
3========================================================================
4fc 0 0/3/0/0/0/0 fcd CLAIMED INTERFACE HP AD300A 4Gb Dual Port PCIe Fibre Channel Adapter (FC Port 1)
5 /dev/fcd0
6fc 1 0/3/0/0/0/1 fcd CLAIMED INTERFACE HP AD300A 4Gb Dual Port PCIe Fibre Channel Adapter (FC Port 2)
7 /dev/fcd1
Depending on the controller type (td
/fcd
driver) one of the following tools are executed and combined with grep
to get the Port WWN/WWID:
1# fcmsutil /dev/fcd0|grep "N_Port Port World Wide Name"
2 N_Port Port World Wide Name = 0x500...
3
4# tdutil /dev/td0|grep "N_Port Port World Wide Name"
5 N_Port Port World Wide Name = 0x500...
Alternatively you can use the fcmsutil
utility - this tool automatically chooses the required "sub tool":
1# fcmsutil /dev/fcd0|grep "N_Port Port World Wide Name"
2 N_Port Port World Wide Name = 0x500
LUN information
Under HP-UX 11.31 ioscan
has been updated and so it's able to get the WWID of a LUN - e.g. for hard drives:
1# ioscan -kCdisk -P wwid
2Class I H/W Path wwid
3===============================
4disk 2 64000/0xfa00/0x1 0x500...
5disk 3 64000/0xfa00/0x3 0x500...
6...
This feature doesn't exist under HP-UX 11.11 and 11.23 - using this releases you'll have to use the above-mentioned tool:
1# fcmsutil /dev/fcd0 get remote all
2
3 Target N_Port_id is = 0x0b1b00
4 Target state = DSM_UNOPENED
5 Symbolic Name =
6 Port Type = UNKNOWN
7 FCP-2 Support = NO
8 Target Port World Wide Name = 0x500...
9 Target Node World Wide Name = 0x500...
Unfortunately, the assigment between hard drive and WWID isn't clearly obvious. Using lssf
you can determine the associated controller and list all connected devices using fcmsutil
. If the list of connected devices isn't too long, you can find the correct device with some luck:
1# lssf /dev/dsk/c57t0d3
2sdisk card instance 57 SCSI target 0 SCSI LUN 3 section 0 at address 0/7/0/0/0/0.50.12.0.1.0.3 /dev/dsk/c57t0d3
3
4# ioscan -H 0/7/0/0/0/0 -fnC fc
5Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
6========================================================================
7fc 2 0/7/0/0/0/0 fcd CLAIMED INTERFACE HP AD300A 4Gb Dual Port PCIe Fibre Channel Adapter (FC Port 1)
8 /dev/fcd2
9
10# fcmsutil /dev/fcd2 get remote all
11...
12Target N_Port_id is = 0x996900
13Target state = DSM_READY
14Symbolic Name = IBM 2145 0000
15Port Type = N_PORT
16FCP-2 Support = NO
17Target Port World Wide Name = 0x500...
18Target Node World Wide Name = 0x500...
Unfortunately this approach is not really time-saving.
