UUID
I can understand UUID is Universally Unique Identifier. Before expanding a new lun we need to get the UUID for the disk.
how to get the disk UUID from windows server and Unix server.

Re: UUID
For HPUNIX..
# evainfo
usage: evainfo [-a|-d
]
-a : Display information for all EVA Luns presented to this host.
-d : Display information for the specified EVA Lun.
-l : Display information in long/full format.
-v : Display EVAInfo tool version details.
-f : Specify output format. The supported values for
tab (default)
csv
-u : Specify output format for Capacity {KB|MB|GB}, default is MB.
-W : Collate output based on WWN of Luns.
-w : Display information for the specified Lun WWN.
-g : Use SCSI generic (sg) interface on Linux.
-h : Help
Example output from evainfo -a
Devicefile Array WWNN Capacity Controller/Port/Mode

For Windows you donot have evainfo..
In Windows based on the Size of Disk and LUN Number you can find which drive to expand.

Re: UUID
All OS communicates to the SCSI LUN 'number' to a virtual disk, because this is the only addressable entity.
A 64-bit WWN is a characteristic of a Fibre Channel port as a 128-bit LUN-WWN is a characteristic of a virtual disk's LUN mapping, but they cannot be used as direct addresses.
The N_Port ID (Fibre Channel address) is 24 bits and is something different than a 64-/128-bit WWN. It is used to access physical ports in a Fibre Channel fabric and works (a bit) like an IP-address while a 64-bit WWN works (a bit) like a MAC address. A SCSI target address is mapped to an N_Port ID by the operating system device driver.
A UUID is used to persistently identify an object (disk drive, controller, host, vdisk, ...) _within_ an EVA and does not change.
NOTE: By default, the LUN WWN has the same value as the UUID, but it can be changed it if the VDisk is not presented to a host.
