Hi,

If you have stm installed on your system, try

echo 'selclass qualifier cpu;info;wait;infolog' |cstm >/tmp/cpuinfo.txt

more /tmp/cpuinfo.txt


Hope this helps.

You can run fcmsutil also.

Hi,

sorry about the first post. That will give you the firmware version for the system cpu. To find the firmware version of individual hardware, take a complete list and then search for the controller you are looking for,

echo 'selclass qualifier all;info;wait;infolog' |cstm >/tmp/system_info.txt

more /tmp/system_info.txt

Looks for the device firmware for the controller you are looking for.

Hope this helps.

For the A5158A you can get the version from swlist:
# swlist |more
OR
# swlist |grep A5158A

It should return something like:
A5158A 11.00.10 PCI Tachyon TL/TS Fibre Channel
where the 11.00.10 is the version.

This also happens to be the most current version which can be obtained from:
http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=A5158A

See the installation instructions here for important patch information:

Just so you know, there is no actual firmware for the A5158A FC card. It runs via a driver, and this driver must be installed into your kernel if not already. The latest driver is B.11.00.10
Cheryl has placed the link as where to get it and the necessary required patch information.
