Hello, I am looking for a way to search a virtual volume by its WWN showvv -d -sortcol 10,inc would give me the list of all the WWNs but I am unable to grep within. Can anyone help me with this? |

If you install the command line tools on your workstation, you should be able to pipe the output to grep or whatever tools you like. |

In Windows, install putty software and use plink which can prove useful, without logging into the 3par array. A sample example of plink looks like : cmd.exe /c plink -l <Username> -pw <password> IP <command> | findstr [options] |

or in Linux you can setup your ssh keys to allow login to the storage frame and do a command like: Code: ssh 3pararray "showvv -showcols Name,VV_WWN" |grep -i 50002AC01BA10E65

So far only workarounds have been provided. I know I can paste the output in notepad and search for the WWN but I am more interested if there is a way using the 3PAR CLI to do it. I would not imagine the CLI is not capable of doing it? The idea is to grow a virtual volume having the WWN just with two operations if I were to use the suggestions I would just use GUI. Please reply only if you find the exact syntax to "grep" in the results. Thanks |

did you look at my example? It does exactly what you are asking. |

Tried showvv -showcols Name,VV_WWN |grep WWN but it does not list any volume (having copied the WWN from the output without | grep Any other ideas? |

I do it just the way you described. I have Red Hat's Cygwin installed on my laptop which is a really great tool to have in general, but particularly useful if you use the 3par CLI heavily. Straight from the Cygwin terminal I can do a `ssh <3parName> showvv -showcols Name,VV_WWN | grep -i <WWN>` Or if I have a group of WWNs for which I am trying to determine VV Names I will put them in a flat file (wwns.list) and do a for i in `cat wwns.list` do ssh <3parName> showvv -showcols Name,VV_WWN | grep -i $i done Of course this creates a new SSH session for each WWN in the list so it can take some time and isn't very efficient. If you have a large list of WWNs you can do it this way instead: ssh <3parName> showvv -showcols Name,VV_WWN > vvs.3par for i in `cat wwns.list` do grep -i $i vvs.3par done |
