At least in 11.31 the latest fcmsutil is showing HBA and switch WWN.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Local N_Port_id is = 0x0a1700
Previous N_Port_id is = None
N_Port Node World Wide Name = 0x5001...
N_Port Port World Wide Name = 0x5001...
Switch Port World Wide Name = 0x20000...
Switch Node World Wide Name = 0x10000...
Driver state = ONLINE
Hardware Path is = 40/0/2/0/0/0/0/4/0/0/0

From the CLI to the Brocade (telnet/ssh to the switch management interface and login), you can run #switchshow and see the WWN's of the connected devices and which port those devices are associated with.

As Torsten explained there are differnet classes of drivers for differnent HBA's. There are /dev/td drivers, /dev/fcms drivers and /dev/fclp drivers. Depedning on the type of HBA and thus the associated driver, you will have one or more of these (more only if you have varying types of FC cards installed) but generally only one type will really be there unless you are mixing the installed HBA's.
