Search WWN

Every component is uniquely identified on the SAN with an obfuscated series of letters and digits called a WWN: LUNs, storage groups, disks, fiber ports, arrays, servers, etc. Retrieving a device corresponding to a WWN found in error log or any other administration GUI is a nightmare for SAN administrators. The Search WNN feature has been designed to easily find any component based on its complete or partial World Wild Name.
