Retrieving Array Controller information
Device 0 ............................. COMPAQ SCSI COMMUNICATE
Logical Unit ID 0 ................... COMPAQ SCSI COMMUNICATE
Device Type ........................ Reserved
Firmware Version ................... CISS
This DL380 actually has a SmartArray 5i with firmware version 2.38 B. If I try and use WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) when I retrieve the SCSI Controller I get lots of information but the HardwareVersion field is blank. So my question is how can I get this information programmatically? I know it is possible and I know HP is doing it because when you run the ACU (Array Controller Utility) you can get the FirmWare version.
Additionally I would like my program to let the administrator know he is compliant when he has a higher version than our baseline. This is easy to do when you have a version or a date because anything greater than will be OK. But when we look at a disk model and Firmware Version it looks like this:
COMPAQ BD0366349C Firmware Version: 3B06
Is that number for the Firmware Version hexadecimal? Some hard drives have Firmware Version which are not hexadecimal like ACJG for instance so I doubt it. Regardless is there a way to map that Firmware Version to a number or date I could use?
