    Hi @Nikhil Desai ,

    With "LDEV" you mean "Logical Device"? I don't believe there's any built-in function to check this within Windows Server, you can check if your storage vendor has any software which likely may find this, or any third-party tools.

    Hi,

    From Windows side, we may use the below commands to get the disk's detailed information.

    – CMD > Diskpart

    – List disk [Disk number from Diskpart is equal to the disk number from disk management GUI]

    – CMD > Diskpart > select disk X

    – CMD > Diskpart > select disk X > Detail disk

    However, if we want to get more deep information about the disk, we need to combine with Storage vendor's command. For example:

    – powermt display dev=all

    – Powermt Pseudo name is equal to the disk number from Diskpart. Lun number from Powermt HW path is equal to the LUN ID from Diskpart. This will help you to map devices and find interesting info for the specific SAN disk.
