I am in the process of updating some home grown ESX 4.1 U3 service console disaster recovery scripts to run in the vMA with ESX 5.1 U1.
I have run into an issue.
Under the service console on 4.1, I could use vmkfstools --queryrdm to determine what LUN (ok, vml, but it amounts to the same thing) an RDM pointed to. In the vMA version of vmkfstools, the --queryrdm option is specifically not supported. In the absence of this option, how do I determine what LUN an RDM points to? Is there some way to use any of the metadata in the .vmdk file to determine this?
