How to find out HBA details

panks — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 20:25:45 GMT

how can I find out how many HBA are there in my system. If I see physically it is showing 4 but when I am checking for the software bundle associated with it using swlist command it is showing for 2 only.
FibrChanl-00 B.11.23.03 PCI FibreChannel;Supptd HW=A6795A,A5158A
FibrChanl-01 B.11.23.03 PCI-X FibreChannel;Supptd HW=A6826A,A9782A,A9784A,AB465A

In short how can I check the total no of HBA and software associated with it.

Thanks

You can use:

ioscan -funC fc

To show fibre channel HBAs in your system.

Altthough actually that will show you FC ports so any cards with 2 FC ports will have 2 entries
