nodeFind

Displays all device Name Server (NS) entries matching a given WWN, device PID, or alias.

SYNOPSIS nodefind WWN | PID | ALIAS

DESCRIPTION Use this command to display the NS information for all devices in the fabric that have either a port world

wide name (WWN) or a node WWN matching the given WWN; or have a device PID matching the given

PID; or have a defined configuration alias to which the device belongs matching the given alias.

If there is no device matching the given WWN, PID, or alias, the message "No device found" is displayed.

NOTES The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in

place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for

details.

OPERANDS This command has the following operands:

WWN | PID | ALIAS

Specify the WWN, device PID, or alias that can be used to match the real device's

data. The WWN must have eight colon-separated fields, each consisting of one or

two hexadecimal numbers between 0 and ff, with no spaces. The PID usually

begins with 0x or 0X. If the PID does not begin with 0x or 0X, it is interpreted as an

alias. If an alias is not found, the argument is checked for other PIDs.
