If you can get access to the Control Station (say, via ESRS), you can get the internal (customer-facing) IP via the CLI. You can run 'navicli' commands and get information from the Block array. For a captive VNX on the backend, you'll only get the internal IPs. But for a gateway unit, you'll get the public IPs. Here's a captive array:
[nasadmin@test-vnx~]$ /nas/sbin/navicli -h A_APM999999999 networkadmin -get
Storage Processor: SP A
Storage Processor Network Name: SPA
Storage Processor IP Address: 192.168.1.200
Storage Processor Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Storage Processor Gateway Address: 192.168.1.104
And here's a gateway
[nasadmin@vnx-dr-2012a~]$ /nas/sbin/navicli -h A_APM999999998 networkadmin -get
Storage Processor: SP A
Storage Processor Network Name: SPA
Storage Processor IP Address: 10.99.91.11
Storage Processor Subnet Mask: 255.255.254.0
Storage Processor Gateway Address: 10.99.91.1
The /etc/hosts file can help determine the internal IP/hostname to use in your navicli command.
Let us know if that helps!
