Hi, Mark.
Have you thought about maybe installing one of the free Linux distros
for the z Architecture (openSuSE, maybe) and using its set of SCSI
commands (lsluns, lszfcp, etc.) to get the information you need?

We're looking to migrate to a new z/10 and we've come up with an issue that hoping someone out there knows
how to resolve. A while back when we installed our SVC (2145) we lost the ability to see the "real"
LUN number that was being assigned to our z/VM system as an emulated (9336) device. On the SVC side on things
you see a 16 character LIN id like this; 000000000000013D (which we'd only use the last 4 of
"015E"). When you run the SCSIDISC command on z/VM, the LUN that shows up in z/VM in just the next
number in sequential order (e.g. if it was the 11 LUN allocated, it would have a LUN id of 000A000000000000).
Are there any commands from z/VM that can be issued to give you the LUN id as defined within the SVC? A
command like "q edev e011 details" shows
