  • 1.  How to get the device full name (disk device) using esxtop?

    Posted Nov 25, 2012 12:30 PM

    Hi,

    I am just looking storage parameters using esxtop - pressing the key "u" for the disk device.

    As i am using the iSCSI device (open filer), i couldn't see the full device identifier. Anyone can help me to get that.

    I attached the screen shot of esxtop for this..

    Any idea? Thanks in advance.

    When you type "f" while esxtop is running ... Do you get to choose what fields are toggled? I haven't got an ESXi 4 tot test so ...

    In ESXTOP enter a capital "L" and then enter a number to make the DEVICE field wider. Depending on the length of the device name - you might need up to 40 characters to present the complete name.

    Entering the "?" while in ESXTOP will give you the the options you can configure (this information is also there as well).
