Parameter values to obtain in advance
serialnum and model
Obtain these values from the execution result of the GetStorageArray command. In the execution
result, use the arrayType value or the displayArrayType value to specify the model para-
meter, and use the serialNumber value to specify the serialnum parameter.
devnums
Obtain this value from the execution result of the GetStorageArray (subtarget=Logic-
alUnit, lusubinfo=LDEV) command. Execute this command by specifying only the model
and serialnum parameters, LogicalUnit for the subtarget parameter, and LDEV for the
lusubinfo parameter. In the execution result of this command, the devNum value of Logic-
alUnit appears under An instance of LogicalUnit. Use this devNum value to specify
the devnums parameter.
