The following information can be obtained for the initiator with the specified ID.

  • id: ID (uuid) of the intended initiator

  • serverId: ID (uuid) of the applicable compute node

  • name: WWNs, iSCSI names, or host NQNs of initiators

  • protocol: Connection protocol for the intended initiator

  • portIds: List of IDs (uuid) of compute ports of targets with which the intended initiator negotiates

  • vpsId: ID of the VPS to which the intended initiator belongs

  • vpsName: Name of the VPS to which the intended initiator belongs

  • Required role: Security, Storage, RemoteCopy, Monitor, Service, or Resource

  1. Verify the ID of the applicable compute node.

    If you use the CLI to specify a compute node by nickname, check the nickname of the compute node.

    REST API: GET /v1/objects/servers

    CLI: server_list

  2. Verify the ID of the intended initiator.

    If you use the CLI to specify the initiator by WWN, iSCSI name, or host NQN, verify the WWN, iSCSI name, or host NQN of the initiator.

    Run either of the following commands with the compute node ID specified.

    If you use the CLI, you can specify a nickname instead of the compute node ID.

    REST API: GET /v1/objects/servers/<id>/hbas

    CLI: hba_list

  3. Obtain information about the intended initiator.

    Specify the ID of the applicable compute node and ID of the intended initiator, and run either of the following commands.

    If you use the CLI, you can specify nicknames instead of compute node IDs, and specify WWNs, iSCSI names, or host NQNs instead of initiator IDs.

    REST API: GET /v1/objects/servers/<id>/hbas/<hbaId>

    CLI: hba_show
