Hi All,
I'm new to NDMP, and I just got the zoning done between my IBM TS7650G VTL and the 4 Celerra Data movers I have. The NAS admin just gave me a list of the drives seen on the data movers:
[nasadmin@NAS1 ~]$ server_devconfig server_2 -l -s -n |grep tape
tape2 c32t0l1 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape3 c32t0l2 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape4 c32t0l3 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape5 c32t0l4 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape6 c32t0l5 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape7 c32t0l6 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape8 c32t0l7 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape9 c32t0l8 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape10 c32t0l9 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape11 c32t0l10 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape12 c32t0l11 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
tape13 c32t0l12 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
ttape2 c64t0l1 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
ttape3 c64t0l2 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
ttape4 c64t0l3 tape IBM ULT3580-TD3 5AT0
I don't see any serial numbers or any WWNs in this list. How am I supposed to link those to my drives on TSM, if they don't give me the serial numbers ?
The NAS admin is telling me that he cannot get me a serial number or a WWN and that I should just use "trial and error" to figure out what links to what on TSM.
Is that a correct statement ? I couldn't find much more information than that in the EMC guides or in the TSM docs.
Anyone ever had to do this ?
Thanks a lot!
