Library /sys$common/syshlp/sysmanhelp.hlb IO, FIND_WWID  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    The IO FIND_WWID command probes all Fibre Channel ports, detects
    all previously undiscovered tapes and medium changers behind a
    Modular Data Router (MDR), and assigns a worldwide identifier
    (WWID) to each one. The command also displays a list of the
    devices and their assigned device names, and automatically records
    this information in the SYS$SYSTEM:SYS$DEVICES.DAT file. Finally,
    the command updates relevant local and clusterwide memory
    structures.

    To configure newly attached Fibre Channel tapes, use this command
    prior to running the SYSMAN command IO AUTOCONFIGURE.

    You must have CMKRNL privilege to use the IO FIND_WWID command.

    For more information about Fibre Channel, see the Guidelines for
    OpenVMS Cluster Configurations.
