Logical device history script (LDEV)
The report CLUI application provides a command that displays Logical Device History data.
The required elements for this command are –dkc, and –ldev. Optionally, you can specify a
management station by using –ms <URL>, and specify a username and password pair by using –auth
<user:passwd>.
Following is the general format of the command to invoke the script:
LDEV usage
ldev [-d<delim>] [-L] [-hr] [-ms <URL>] [-auth <user:passwd>] -dkc <serial
#>
-ldev <logical device #> [-st <start time> -et <end time>] [-dver <xxxxxx>]
[-?]
where:
–d<delim>
An optional parameter used to specify delimited output data. There is no space between
d and the delimiter.
–L
An optional parameter used to specify labeled and delimited output data.
–hr
An optional parameter used to request the data in a human-readable format.

<logical device #>
The logical device number in the form <cu>:<ldev>, where:
<cu> is the control unit number (0...ff).
