How can I tell what version of Emulex firmware is on a G7 blade server's CNA LOM?
Lawrence had LOM question:
*****************
How do I tell what the CNA LOM firmware is on a Blade server running VMware ESXi without having to reboot the server to look at the POST screen?
I tried the OA’s Firmware screen but the Emulex LOM firmware is not displayed even with the latest OA firmware 3.31.
Is there perhaps a Linux command line query that I can run from the server’s console?
******************
Chris answered:
**************
If your ESX host is being managed by vCenter, you can check the Hardware Status tab. There is a Software section that you can look at the installed driver and firmware version of the NICs. Or, you can log into the Unsupported Console (Alt-F1), type in “unsupported” then the root password. Use the “ethtool –i vmnic” command to view the same information. Ethtool is also available in ESX Classic.
*******************
Other comments or help for Lawrence? Have you tried this approach?

Re: How can I tell what version of Emulex firmware is on a G7 blade server's CNA LOM?
Is there a way to see the firmware level from the OA CLI? Or somewhere else without logging into the server itself?
