Subject: [ANNOUNCE] lsscsi 0.26 beta 2, add --wwn
Date: Wed, 01 Feb 2012 11:32:57 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F296939.9040806@interlog.com> (raw)

lsscsi currently can provide some transport related
WWN information when the --transport (-t) option
is used. This will probably be a target port name rather
than a LU name.
Fetching the LU name has proven elusive. The most direct
way would be to issue an INQUIRY to get the device
identification VPD page but that would require root
permissions. A feature of lsscsi is that it doesn't need
root permissions (or related tricks).

This beta adds a --wwn (-w) option which searches the udev
provided /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-* symlinks. This will find
WWNs (LU names) for disks if udev can find them.

If there is no averse feedback version 0.26 will be released
in a few weeks.


There are two SATA disks in the example below: /dev/sda and
/dev/sdd . /dev/sda has no WWN and is directly connected to
a SATA controller on the motherboard. /dev/sdd has a WNN and
is connected via a SAS expander.
