Searching WWN/IQN

Home  Previous  Next

Components are uniquely identified on the SAN by a WWN or by an iSCSI name. Because WWN are a series of letters and digits and IQN can be up to 255 characters long, retrieving a device or port corresponding to a WWN or IQN found in error log or any other administration GUI is a nightmare for SAN administrators. The Search WWN/IQN feature has been designed to easily find any component based on its complete or partial World Wide Name or IQN.
