powercli : get lun ids the raw disks of your virutal machine

Posted on 8:57 AM by Unknown
Nice script I found to get the lun ids for your vm
 Thanks pelicano


$vm= "VMNAMEHERE"
if (Get-VM $VM)
{
$Disks= Get-VM $VM | Get-HardDisk | Where {$_.DiskType -eq “RawPhysical”}

Foreach ($Disk in $Disks) {

$Lun= Get-SCSILun $Disk.SCSICanonicalName -VMHost (Get-VM $VM).VMHost
$Lun.RuntimeName.Substring($Lun.RuntimeName.LastIndexof(“L”)+1)

}

}




update:
here is another good script  that I used to find what vmdk a particular lun number is associated with

Get-VM | Get-HardDisk -DiskType "RawPhysical","RawVirtual" | 
where { $_.ScsiCanonicalName -eq  "naa.600601607290250060ae06da248be111"} |
 Select Parent,Name,DiskType,ScsiCanonicalName,DeviceName | fl
