Najman the command from CLI to claim storage using mapping file is:

claimingwizard –f /tmp/array_name.txt -c cluster-ID

Hello Najman,

if Ankur or someone else given you the answer here is the answer:

To create a mapping file for the VPLEX Claiming Wizard:

Type the following commands to change to the storage-volumes context:

cd /clusters/cluster-ID/storage-elements/storage-volumes/

From the storage-volumes context, type the ll command to list all storage volumes.

Cut and paste the output on the screen and save it to a file.

Create a txt file and type the heading Generic storage-volumes at the beginning of the file as shown in the following example:

Generic storage-volumes

VPD83T3:60060e801004f2b0052fabdb00000006 ARRAY_NAME_1

VPD83T3:60060e801004f2b0052fabdb00000007 ARRAY_NAME_2

VPD83T3:60060e801004f2b0052fabdb00000008 ARRAY_NAME_3

VPD83T3:60060e801004f2b0052fabdb00000009 ARRAY_NAME_4

Use this file as a name mapping file for the VPLEX Claiming Wizard by using either the VPlexcli or the GUI. If using VPlexcli, the name mapping file should reside on the SMS. If using the VPLEX GUI, the name mapping file should be on the same system as the GUI.

Hope it is going to help you

Best Regards

I would also add that you should run the claimingwizzard command for the first time using the "-d" option. This option is what if (do not do). You will see the volumes being claimed and their names. Also please reference my post in the VPlex group on LinkedIn "stop the investigation" for helpful naming suggestions
