VNX CLI Compatibility list
Where I can find compatibility list of VNX storages for CLI Block API (VNX-Command-Line-Interface-Reference-for-Block.pdf)?
Do VNX2 series (VNX5200, VNX5400, VNX5600, VNX5800, VNX7600, etc) support this API?
What about VNX1 series (VNX5100, VNX5300, etc) ?
The same question is about VNX CLI File API (VNX-Command-Line-Interface-Reference-for-File.pdf).

There are minor differences between Block OE versions for VNX1 (5.32) and VNX2 (5.33)
In general, most commands are the same and supported on both platforms, but not all. This is due to feature differences and enhancements in newer models.
Attached is the CLI guide for Block 5.32 and also 5.33
There will be similar differences in File versions and their support of the api.
I'm not aware of any compatibility lists as such, but changes should be in the release notes.

Thank you for answer and references to docs about Block API!
Do you have similar docs for File API for VNX1 and VNX2 series?

For File, the VNX1 is on version 7.x and VNX2 is on version 8.x.
These 'partner' with the applicable Block OE version on the array. Target releases can be found here: https://support.emc.com/docu56982_VNX-VNXe-Uptime-Bulletin-for-Q4,-2014.pdf?language=en_US
Latest guides attached. Hope this helps.
