How do i identify my FC-HBA card model in HP-UX?

Hi,
I have been looking in the forum for method, how to identify the fc-hba model. But i have not found one. Could any one please guide me what are the ways ? I read one post, where the author said, "# fcmsutil /dev/td0 vpd" will give me the data. Unfortunately it did not work for me.
# fcmsutil /dev/td0 vpd
This card does not support VPD

# fcmsutil /dev/td1

Vendor ID is = 0x00103c
Device ID is = 0x001028
TL Chip Revision No is = 2.3
PCI Sub-system Vendor ID is = 0x00103c
PCI Sub-system ID is = 0x000006
Topology = PTTOPT_FABRIC
Local N_Port_id is = 0x010b00
N_Port Node World Wide Name = 0x50060b00000ad6af
N_Port Port World Wide Name = 0x50060b00000ad6ae
Driver state = ONLINE
Hardware Path is = 0/4/0/0
Number of Assisted IOs = 185
Number of Active Login Sessions = 0
Dino Present on Card = NO
Maximum Frame Size = 960
Driver Version = @(#) libtd.a HP Fibre Channel Tachyon XL2 Driver B.11.23.03 /ux/core/isu/TL/kern/src/common/wsio/td_glue.c: Aug 16 2004, 13:49:26

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
NKD

Re: How do i identify my FC-HBA card model in HP-UX?

there are some way to identify it
#sam
#ioscan -fnC fc
I saw on you post and know that you have HP Fibre Channel Tachyon XL2 .
The result of ioscan -fnC fc will show you product number.

You can get that from cstm as follows:

# echo 'scl q fibre;cds;q' | cstm | egrep '^Qual|Hard'

I have still not found the card no from,

# ioscan -fnC fc
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
=================================================================
fc 0 0/2/0/0 td CLAIMED INTERFACE HP Tachyon TL/TS Fibre Channel Mass Storage Adapter
/dev/td0
fc 1 0/4/0/0 td CLAIMED INTERFACE HP Tachyon TL/TS Fibre Channel Mass Storage Adapter
/dev/td1
#

and this string hangs in my mcahine,
echo 'scl q fibre;cds;q' | cstm | egrep '^Qual|Hard'

Thanks for both the replies

Re: How do i identify my FC-HBA card model in HP-UX?

Based off the driver version, it's either one of these HBAs.

A6795A PCI Tachyon XL2 Adapter Card
A5158A PCI Tachlite Fibre Channel Adapter
A6684A HSC-eff Tachlite Fibre Channel Adapter
A6685A HSC Tachlite Fibre Channel Adapter

Looking at the rest of the fcmsutil output shows "TL Chip Revision", so that knocks the A6795A out since it's an XL. Finally look at your full ioscan output at the bus your HBA is connected to. if you don't see HSC or GSC for ext_bus 0/4/0, then we've narrowed it down to the Tachyon TL A5158A HBA.

The TL chip rev and driver have me leaning towards the A5158A.

The "Vendor ID" and "Device ID" are PCI ID numbers.

Go to http://pciids.sourceforge.net/ and select "Online list of IDs". Drill down to vendor 103c and then device 1028 and you'll find it is named "Tach TL Fibre Channel Host Adapter", so Denver's analysis is confirmed.

Check whether ODE is installed and its processes diaglogd, diagmond and memlogd are running i.e.

# ps -ef | grep diag

if the above cmd returns process names like diaglogd and diagmond then ODE is installed and running on the system but is probably hung. Try restarting the diagnostic system and see if you can log into cstm and execute the cmds below and let me know if it worked or not.

# /sbin/init.d/diagnostic stop
# /sbin/init.d/diagnostic start
# echo map | cstm

~hope it helps

Hi,

Sandman's command should work:
# echo 'scl q fibre;cds;q' | cstm | egrep '^Qual|Hard'

Just do as he said in the above thread. If your diagnostics software not started you have to start it for cstm to work.

If it started you can also use its GUI mode by typing stm command.

Regards.

Execute the following to get the details:

fcmsutil /dev/td1 vpd
