Vplex WWN converter?
I know there is a WWN converter that can take a Vmax/Symmetrix disk WWN and convert it to show the Array SID and Symdev number, but is there an equivalent to do the same with a Vplex disk WWN? Thanks.

Hi Marvin,
I'd be nice if there were such a tool, but one doesn't exist. And it's primarily because it can't be done, since the same logic that goes into determining Symm ID's is completely different in VPLEX. It has to do with the way unique VPDID strings are generated within VPLEX.
Starting in GeoSynchrony 5.4 release, the VPDID will be listed with a property of the virtual-volume. Previously it was only visible via the storage-view. This may help with the mappings...
