Monitoring Host Bus Adapters (HBAs)
Using QLogic SANblade Manager
The most effective way to retrieve HBA status and information is by using the HBA
manufacturer’s utility, such as the Qlogic SANblade Manager software provided by
Qlogic for their HBAs. This software is freely downloadable from Qlogic’s website
(http://www.qlogic.com).
Note – Other manufacturer’s utilities, such as LightPulse’s Emulex, are needed for
other HBA’s, such as Emulex HBAs.
Use the Qlogic SANblade Manager to extract information about:
■ HBA Driver versions
■ Firmware versions
■ A primitive topology view
■ A LUN listing
■ Diagnostics on the HBA
