Retrieve volume information for Linux

Retrieve volume information from the SDC host.

On the SDC host, run the following command to get the operating system volume information that correlates to the PowerFlex scini device name: 
ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/ |grep scini

Output, similar to the following appears:

Output shows volume information

This output shows the scini volume name and the volume ID.

By matching the volume ID in both outputs, you can match the operating system name, sciniX, with the PowerFlex volume name.

For example:
  • scinia = fac22a6300000000 = vol0
  • scinic = fac22a6400000001 = vol1

Alternatively, run the sg_inq /dev/sciniX SCSI query command (which requires that the sg3_utils be installed on the Linux host). The result of this command includes the EMC volume ID at the bottom of the output, as illustrated:

The EMC volume ID at the bottom of the output
NOTE:The product identification remains as ScaleIO (not PowerFlex).
