What is hba card Linux?

Fibre Channel (FC) Host Bus Adapters(HBA) are interface cards that connects the host system to a fibre channel network or devices. The two major manufacturers of FC HBAs are QLogic and Emulex and the drivers for many HBAs are distributed in-box with the Operating Systems.

How do I know how many HBA adapters I have?

HBA card wwn number can be manually identified by filtering the associated files under the “/sys” file system. The files under sysfs provide information about devices, kernel modules, filesystems, and other kernel components, which are typically mounted automatically by the system at /sys.

How to identify the HBA cards / ports and WWN in Solaris?

The fcinfo command give us more info on the HBA ports (model, manufactures etc) and the WWN numbers of the HBA ports.

How can I get list of HbA ports?

We can get a list of HBA ports using the luxadm command. Remember that luxadm command only work on hba’s that are bound to the Oracle drivers. So if native (non oracle) Emulex driver is in use then the luxadm command will not work.

How to get the target port WWN in Solaris?

To get information on target port WWN use the “remote-port -p” option with fcinfo. The syntax for the same is : Another way to get the target port WWNs is using the luxadm command with the dump_map option : Port_ID ending with “00” or “13” indicates a FC switch attached storage.

Can you use luxadm on a HBA card?

Remember that luxadm command only work on hba’s that are bound to the Oracle drivers. So if native (non oracle) Emulex driver is in use then the luxadm command will not work. In that case use the fcinfo command.
