Hi all,

Is there any method to check the appliance storage shelf's serial number remotely? 

Inside the web conosle I cannot find any information related to the serial number of the storage shelf!

 

Thanks a lot!

I've been here.  Own over 40 appliances and about 70 Shelves.  Here is what you do.  

 

Clish > Support > Data Collect

When it finishes

Maintenance 

Go to /tmp

Make a folder and copy the DataCollect.zip file you just created to it.  

cd into your dir and  unzip DataCollect.zip

The file you want is called Raid-Card-Enclosure-Info-log_(todays date).log

Use the view command to opening it.  The serial numbers are listed under Vender ID and Product ID match and start with TB.. There will be one section like this per shelf.  

Example 

VendorID and Product ID didnt match
    FRU Part Number               : N/A
    Enclosure Serial Number       : N/A
    ESM Serial Number             : N/A
    Enclosure Zoning Mode         : N/A
    Partner Device Id             : #####

    Inquiry data                  :
        Vendor Identification     : Promise
        Product Identification    : J630s
        Product Revision Level    : 060=
        Vendor Specific           : TB00#############    0000 (I put hash where my numbers are

#EDIT Sorry, saw you need the storage not the appliance itself.

or if you don't like using view you can also use cat. 

cat Riad-Card-Enclosure-Info-Log_(todays date).log | grep 'Vendor Specific'

and that will show you just the serial number lines.
