hp3310 data collection guide

Hi

How do I collect information from a hp3310 server, such as SCSI driver, kernel information...

Shalom,

This depends on OS.

kmtune -l # kernel 11.11
kctune # kernel 11.23 11.31

This system does not run Linux, which is where you posted this.

Most of the rest of the information can be collected from ioscan -fnC sam/smh

Hi

The OS is Redhat.

RedHat distribution version:

cat /etc/redhat-release

Kernel version and architecture (e.g. 32-bit vs 64-bit):

uname -a

To find SCSI driver information, you will need to know the names of the SCSI driver modules used on the system. On a RedHat, this can normally be achieved with:

grep scsi_hostadapter /etc/modprobe.conf

The output will usually be one or more lines, like this:

alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase
alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptsas
alias scsi_hostadapter2 lpfc
alias scsi_hostadapter3 usb-storage

This particular server had a Fusion MPT hardware RAID controller, which uses a two-part driver (mptbase + mptsas), an Emulex LightPulse FibreChannel HBA (lpfc) and some USB storage device(s).

To get information on the driver modules, including the version number, use the "modinfo" command:

modinfo mptbase
modinfo mptsas
modinfo lpfc

RedHat Enterprise Linux also has a built-in tool ("sysreport" in older versions, "sosreport" in RHEL 5 and presumably newer releases) which can produce a very detailed report on system configuration. See "man sosreport" or "man sysreport", depending on your RedHat version.

I have got the way of getting SCSI/kernel information.
