Include WWNN as a property for DS8000 Storage Systems for the purpose of building PPRC Scripts

Storage Insights is so useful to pull data for the purpose of building PPRC scripts; however, when defining PPRC Paths, the WWNN of the remote DS8000 is required in the command.  The WWNN can be retrived by issuing either of these DSCLI commands:  lssi, showsi.   It would be nice to have this data in Storage Insights so all data required to build the scripts is available in Storage Insights and removes the need to still go to DSCLI or the DS GUI to retrieve the WWNN.  We are working on integrating the Storage Insights REST API into a tool that we have built and are hoping to be able to build full PPRC scripts based on data retrieved from the Storage Insights REST API.  This is currently one piece of data that is missing.
