Basic Commandsbaseuuid (CX series only)Gets or sets the storage-system unique unit identifier (UUID) basefor use by a server running Tru64DescriptionSyntaxPrerequisitesOptionsOutputThe naviseccli or navicli baseuuid command gets or sets the base ofthe unique unit ID as required for servers in a Tru64 cluster. TheTru64 operating system uses the UUID (which it creates bycombining the base and an offset which is the storage-system LUNID) to manage the LUNs in a cluster. You can also use the UUID tomanage the LUN.To discover the UUID base, use the command without an argument.baseuuid is used with naviseccli (described on page 37) or navicli(described on page 45) as follows:baseuuid [uuid-base-value]For naviseccli, you must have a user account on the storage systemon which you want to execute the command.For navicli, you must have a user entry in the Navisphere agentconfiguration file.uuid-base-valueSpecifies the UUID base.If the version of FLARE software running on the SP does not supportthis command, a Not Supported error message is printed to stderr.Examples naviseccli -h ss1_spa baseuuidBase UUID of the array: 12345naviseccli -h ss1_spa baseuuid 34Base UUID of the array is set to 34.These commands get, then set the UUID base of the storage systemcontaining the SP ss1_spa.Note: To use this command with navicli, replace naviseccli with navicli.78 EMC Navisphere Command Line Interface (CLI) Reference
