sanlun NetApp utility gathering information about LUNs in Linux

To display about LUN and disk information

[root@TechTutorials ~]# sanlun lun show
controller(7mode)/                        device          host                  lun
vserver(Cmode)       lun-pathname         filename        adapter    protocol   size    mode
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ark-netapp-03        /vol/u03/u03 /dev/sdo        host6      FCP        500.1g  C
ark-netapp-03        /vol/u02/u02 /dev/sdn        host6      FCP        600.1g  C

Get the  mapped LUN details using particular disk / partition. Using below command we can get the details about LUN, the LUN which is used to create Disk / Partition.

[root@TechTutorials ~]# sanlun fcp show adapter -c

[root@TechTutorials ~]# sanlun lun show -d /dev/sdo
controller(7mode)/                        device          host                  lun
vserver(Cmode)       lun-pathname         filename        adapter    protocol   size    mode
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ark-netapp-03        /vol/u03/u03 /dev/sdo        host6      FCP        500.1g  C

Fetch iSCSI details by providing Local disk information

Command will provide us the details of NetApp Filer, iSCSI Initiator details.

[root@TechTutorials ~]# sanlun lun show -v -d /dev/sdo1

vserver              lun-pathname              filename        adapter    protocol   size    mode
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
vserver1                  /vol/auto_vol196_4/lun1_1 /dev/sdo1       host29     iSCSI      3g      C
LUN Serial number: 2Fgnl+9slW1d
Controller Model Name: FAS3170
Vserver iSCSI IP address: 192.168.10.99
Vserver iSCSI port number: 3260
Vserver IP address: 192.168.20.78
Vserver volume name: auto_vol196_4   MSID::0x00000000000000000000000080000413

Display mapped LUN details which are mapped to particular HBA card using its WWPN (World wide Port Name)

[root@TechTutorials ~]# sanlun lun show -wwpn 21000034ff0613e5

Displays all the devices reachable through the controller port with WWPN 21000034ff0613e5:

controller(7mode)/   target                                                      device          host       lun
vserver(Cmode)       wwpn               lun-pathname                             filename        adapter    size    mode
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vserver1                  21000034ff0613e5   /vol/volname/lun2                        /dev/sdr        host10     200g      C
Vserver1                  21000034ff0613e5   /vol/volname/lun1                        /dev/sdq        host10     200g      C
Vserver1                  21000034ff0613e5   /vol/volname/lun2                        /dev/sdj        host9      200g      C
Vserver1                  21000034ff0613e5   /vol/volname/lun1                        /dev/sdi        host9      200g      C

The output will be the same for the command “sanlun lun show -wwpn 21:00:00:34:ff:06:13:e5”.

Get Netapp Filer Information using LUN path

We can also see, from which Netapp Filer LUN is mapped and its information.

[root@TechTutorials ~]# sanlun lun show -pv Vserver1:/vol/volname/lun2

ONTAP Path: Vserver1:/vol/volname/lun2
LUN: 1
