When running a "vmglob -listall" or "vmglob -listall -java",  there are 
fields associated
to the "worldwide name".  When I reconfigured the drives through the use of

 vmoprcmd -h <mediaserver> -autoconfig " -a"

...the devices were entered correctly and matched against the serial 
number, but
the entries for the above were not set.

So the long output for a drive from "vmglob -listall" looks like this:

=====================================================================
device type:               drive
device name:               IBMULTRIUM-TD12

PANEL:                     -1
DRIVE:                     -1

But others don't have the same field filled out...

Is the worldwide name entry used more than just for comment?
