WWNN and WWPN
Hello,
Anyone know how I can convert a WWPN of device (the value that inq returns to me) to WWNN of array? I find out how to handle all parts except the five (emc140309, emc194400 soluations).
Thanks,
Assaf

Thus in simple term - the WWNN is typically the same as the WWPN of SPA0.
It will be quite clear if you take a closer look at the examples shown in the two primus solutions you mentioned.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

I try to generate automatically a map between devices at computers and the arrays that their stored on. Obviously, I can read the information from CLARiiON first and after read the hosts information but it will much easier if I can get the WWNN of CLARiiON from inq.
I know that in Solaris you can get the WWNN itself by "luxadm -e dump_map" but I don't know how do this in others platform (I need AIX, HP-UX, Linux and Windows).
Anyway, if I surely know that turn off of 5th/13th octet will give the WWNN, this is OK for me (the script may turn off it). The problem is of course that I have a few samples so I cannot be sure...

However for CLARiiON arrays - the navicli getarrayuid command can provide you the WWNN.

50:06:01:60:80:60:06:A5:50:06:01:60:00:60:06:A5 so the WWNN is 50:06:01:60:80:60:06:A5 and the WWPN is 50:06:01:60:00:60:06:A5. And as you can see, there are different digit (bold).
I got the full WWN from array but I look for way to get it only from WWPN.
