Identify Physical Devices (RAID LUNs) on the System

To identify physical devices on the system, use either the ESXi host console or an SSH client to connect to the host. 
SSH is not enabled by default in ESXi. You can enable SSH on each host by clicking the 

Configuration tab and choosing 

Security Profile. 

To use the ESXi console to list and identify the physical devices (RAID LUNs), enter the 

ls command at the command line:

{root@ESXi01 ~]# ls –lh /vmfs/devices/disks/

Figure 50 shows an example of the output.

To use vSphere Web Client to list and identify the physical devices (RAID LUNs), follow these steps:

1.  Select the ESXi host and click 

Manage.

2. Select 

Storage and click Storage Devices. You will see the device names (Figure 51).
