Hi,

How would I find product information of HBA on AIX?

I got vendor, firmware and other required information using lscfg and lsattr.

1. Can anybody explain what are these Device Specific (Z0,Z1.....ZC)?
2. How can I find product information of HBA?

My system has Emulex HBA installed and I got one utility (binary) which shows the vendor, firware and product information of HBA. Please suggest and alternative (possibly an OS command) for that utility.

maybe "fcstat fcs0" ?
or you can get EMC's inqutility (single binary file)- the latest binaries for several OSes are available to download from:

ftp://ftp.emc.com/pub/symm3000/inquiry/v7.1.0.0/

What I noticed, the older inq shows "vendor name: EMULEX CORPORATION" for IBM-branded Emulex adapters. The latest inq shows "vendor name: IBM" for the same IBM-branded Emulex adapters. Which Emulex adapters models are IBM-branded you can find on Emulex site.

try:
