Obtaining the Hitachi array serial number and the unique device identifiers
The NetBackup policy requires the Hitachi array's serial number and the unique IDs (device identifiers) for the source and clone LUNs. Use the following procedure to obtain that information.
To obtain the Hitachi array serial number and the unique device identifiers
- Enter the following command:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbfirescan
Example output:
DevicePath Vendor Product ID EnclosureId DeviceId [Ctl,Bus,Tgt,Lun] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /dev/rdsk/c2t6d15s HITACHI F600F 6484 53 [00,00,00,00] /dev/rdsk/c2t6d14s6 HITACHI F600F 6484 52 [00,00,00,00]
The Enclosure ID is the serial number and the Device ID is the array's device ID.
