hello

which type of switches did you have?
if you have brocade switches then open a telnet or ssh connection to the swich and enter the command "portshow " where the HBA is connected.
you will see the portWwn of device(s) connected.

depends, if you have Qlogic you can find all info in /proc/scsi/qla*/*

if you have emulex, i don't know because i never used those before, but my guess is that there will be a directory for it in /proc/scsi in the same manner as for the qlogic card.
