Hi

Has anyone ever made an experience with Hitachi USP V Storage on AIX without installing HDLM Software?

Thanks.

Thanks Delgado. One more question:
How do you get the LuDEV number of a LUN without "/usr/D*/bin/dlnkmgr"? There must be a way to get it, otherwise the storage guy might delete/unzone a wrong LUN when I give back a LUN.

Yes there is a way to get it from the ODM.
We use these one-liners to get the CU/LDEV either in dec or hex (depends what your SAN guys are using to map them).
It might not be the most elegant way to get it but it does the job for us even a lpar see these LUNs through a virtualizing VIO.
Thest them partially or as a whole, caution this forum might misunderstand my codesigns due there is no way here to post it as "code"

Cheers

Cut HDS CULDEV Hex
lspv | while read i k; do odmget -q "attribute=unique_id and name=$i" CuAt|grep -p HITACHI; done | egrep "name|value" | sed "s/\"//g" | awk '{print $3,$4}' | sed 'N;s/\n//' | awk '{print $2}' | cut -c 17-20

Cut HDS CULDEV Dec
lspv | while read i k; do odmget -q "attribute=unique_id and name=$i" CuAt|grep -p HITACHI; done | egrep "name|value" | sed "s/\"//g" | awk '{print $3,$4}' | sed 'N;s/\n//' | awk '{print $2}' | cut -c 17-20 | while read i; do echo "ibase=16; $i" | bc ; done
