IBM System Storage Ideas Portal


This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM System Storage products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).

RELATED IDEAS

command to report version

This idea is specifically CLI related. Currently one has to run "lssystem | grep -i code_ " to get the code level running on IBM Storage Virtualize products. Most other products provide "version" or "ver" or some single word variation to report version of the code it is running. It seems more intuitive, especially for novice storage administrators, and also becomes handy via scripting if such a command is provided (lile "version" or "ver") which reports the running firmware on the system.

    Code level is available on the GUI and via CLI: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/flashsystem-7x00/8.6.x?topic=commands-lssystem

    While we would like to implement all the Ideas we receive, for maximum transparency we are closing enhancement requests that don’t currently appear on our two-year roadmap.
