You are deploying RecoverPoint and need to configure zoning for a Brocade switch. How can the RPA WWNs / PWWNs be retrieved?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Accessing the RPA: To retrieve the WWNs / PWWNs, you need to log into each RecoverPoint Appliance (RPA) individually.

Step 1: Use an SSH client to connect to the RPA.

Step 2: Log in with the boxmgmt user credentials.

Navigating to SAN Diagnostics: Once logged in, navigate to the SAN Diagnostics menu.

Step 3: From the main menu, select the option for SAN Diagnostics. This menu provides various diagnostic tools and information related to the SAN environment.

Retrieving WWNs / PWWNs: Within the SAN Diagnostics menu, you can retrieve the WWNs / PWWNs.

Step 4: Select the option to display the initiators. This will list the WWNs / PWWNs associated with the RPA.

Verification: Ensure that the retrieved WWNs / PWWNs are correct and correspond to the intended RPAs. This information is crucial for configuring zoning on the Brocade switch.

I thought the get_system_settings command was used for other configurations, not specifically for retrieving WWNs. I’m a bit confused about that one.

I’m leaning towards option D because I recall needing to access the RPA directly for detailed SAN information, but I can't quite remember the exact steps.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like the Deployment Manager option might be a trap. It seems too automated for something that requires specific WWNs.

I think I remember that you can get the WWNs directly from the RecoverPoint Management interface, but I'm not sure if it's the get_initiators command or something else.
