vxdisk diskinfo

Provides information on the disk that is referenced in <DiskName>. The information includes the disk name, the dynamic disk group with which the disk is associated, capacity (indicated as Length), disk partition style, free space, device type, port, channel, target ID, LUN, the disk signature, serial number, track alignment settings, Thin Provisioning type (ThinNoReclaim or ThinReclaim for thin provisioned disks), etc. If the disk has associated subdisks, they are listed.

vxdisk [-g <DynamicDiskGroupName>] diskinfo [-e] <DiskName>

The following attributes apply:

-e

Is an optional parameter.

Use the -e option if you want to display extended attribute information for arrays in addition to the basic disk information. Extended attribute information available for display depends on the array type. It can include vendor ID, product ID, revision ID, cabinet serial number, array volume ID, array LUN type, array RAID level, array snapshot LUN, array replication LUN, array media type, array transport protocol, array port WWN number, array port serial number, array controller ID, and array hardware mirror.

DiskName

Name of the disk, e.g., Harddisk2; or internal disk name (requires use of -g option), e.g., -g MyDg Disk2

The -g option is needed only if you use the internal disk name to indicate the disk name (for example,-gDG1 Disk2).

If the disk is site tagged, then it displays the site information if the disk name is specified.

p#c#t#l#

Corresponds to the Port, Channel, Target, LUN of a disk.

Note:

Not all manufacturers of thin provisioned disks enable the display of the current provisioned size.

Example

vxdisk diskinfo Harddisk2

Gives information about Harddisk2.
