AIX - EMC Symetrix Inquiry tool to list - show LUN info for storage

How and where can I see information about LUNs in AIX from EMC Symetrix storage?
Utility is called inq.aix64_51 and can be found in this location: /usr/lpp/EMC/Symmetrix/bin

EMC Drivers / filesets have to be installed:
/usr/lpp/EMC/Symmetrix/bin # lslpp -L | grep EMC
EMC.Symmetrix.aix.rte 5.3.0.5 C F EMC Symmetrix AIX Support
EMC.Symmetrix.fcp.MPIO.rte
5.3.0.5 C F EMC Symmetrix FCP MPIO Support

Scripts and utilities are installed by default:
/usr/lpp/EMC/Symmetrix/bin # ls
bcvfcp.tar emc_odmupdate_uniqueid_v2.tar inq.aix32_51 rdfg.tar
boot_change_v3.tar emc_reserve_v1.sh inq.aix64_51 rmbcv
emc_cfgmgr emcgrab_AIX_v4.2.tar mkbcv
emc_odmupdate.tar emcpowerreset nsddevices.tar

Utility to show device linked to LUN with information like capacity, serial number, ID...
# /usr/lpp/EMC/Symmetrix/bin/inq.aix64_51 -sid -showvol
