ilorest disk model numbers are blank

[georg29]

When running ilorest to try to determing a disk model number, the Model= paremeter is always null.   Why isn't ilorest able to get the disk model number.

I'm on a DL380 Gen10 running RHEL 8.2

Hi,

Please refer to this link

Example command: 

ilorest storagecontroller --storageid=DE00F000  --controller=0 --physicaldrives

Thank You!

@Suman_1978 That option does not work for me:

[root@r15 ~]# ilorest storagecontroller

Command 'storagecontroller' not found. Use the help command to see a list of available commands

My problem is that for some of the DL380s in our lab, the Model= field is populated, for example:

[root@r15 ~]# ilorest select HPESmartStorageDiskDrive

[root@r15 ~]# ilorest list | grep Model
Model=MO000400JWTBQ
Model=MO000400JWTBQ
Model=MO000400JWTBQ
Model=MO000400JWTBQ
Model=MO000400JWTBQ
Model=MO000400JWTBQ

But for other DL380s the Model= field is not populated. Why???

root@ccd2h0-VMHOST0> ilorest storagecontroller

Command 'storagecontroller' not found. Use the help command to see a list of available commands
root@ccd2h0-VMHOST0> ilorest select HPESmartStorageDiskDrive

Hi,

The only difference I see in both the outputs is RESTful Interface Tool version and VMHOST0

I would suggest you to check if the servers are having same firmware levels for Storage controller, hard disks.
I am not sure if this command is able to get Hardware information through the VM host.

Thank You!
