You can use SAN Surver CLI. What information do you need?

cat /proc/scsi/qlaxxx/

Once you drill into /proc/scsi you'll understand it.

Minhaz,

If you are running HP branded Qlogic cards, HP has fiber utils for linux that displays HBA, Lun and other important information.

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=3662827〈=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=3662826&taskId=135

Download the HBA driver kit and install the fibre utils rpm alone.

# adapter_info -a
# lssd
# lssg

more info here - page 43

You can also use SANsurfer HBA Mgt. GUI interface

Hope this helps.

-Thank You
Bharath

There is no built in command. The usual way outside of any 3rd party products is to cat /proc/scsi/qlaxxx/. I think you are over complicating this.
