| Hello,
This is for ESX.
I found the following:
"Identify the LUN Disk and Partition
vmhbax:y:z:v
x=Hostbusadapter (0=1st Adapter, 1= 2nd adapter...x)
y=LUN
z=Disk
v=Partition "
but,
I only have vmhba2:2:0 so i am missing a number. Which is the LUN and
partition in vmhba2:2:0 ?

In my opinion is more like in UNIX - so: x is controller, Y is target, Z
is device - so your LUN is 0, but partition - dunno
If you have more than 1 LUN - check which is changing - I'm sure that
only z is changing according the same controller (vmhbax)

| Have you partitioned the disk, already?
Or is this a brand new disk?
Also, when you say
> I only have vmhba2:2:0
where are you getting that from?

You can easily see that in VMware Administrator GUI - in Storage tab.
Don't remember now exact names.
Anyway - from experience only Z (in vmhbaX:Y:Z) is changing - as LUN
SCSI ID is changing as well.
