How to see the serial number of ssd on a vsphere client

Situatie

Solutie

1. Using vSphere Web Client (vCenter)

Navigate to Host > Configure > Storage > Devices
Locate your SSD in the list
Check the “Serial Number” or “Identifier” column.

Note: Some SSDs might not show their serial numbers directly in vSphere.

2. Using ESXi SSH (Advanced Method)
If the serial number is not visible in the vSphere Client, you can connect to the ESXi host via SSH and use the following command:

esxcli storage core device list | grep -i -E ‘Display Name|Serial Number’
This should display the serial number of each storage device.

3. Using vSphere CLI or PowerCLI
If you prefer PowerCLI, you can run:

Get-VMHost | Get-ScsiLun | Select CanonicalName, Vendor, Model, SerialNumber
This will return the serial numbers of storage devices attached to the host.
