T he results pane will display some of the HBA information.In Servers, click the HBA that you want to display information about.Membership in the local Administrators group, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. HBA port statistics - such as frames and words transmitted and received, synchronization and signal loss counts, and link failures count.The product and vendor identification codes.The hardware, driver, and read-only memory (ROM) versions.The name of the server where the HBA is installed.The information that is displayed includes: You can use Storage Explorer to see detailed information about the Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs) on your server, or on other servers in your storage area network (SAN). Open storage Explorer of Windows Server 2008 R2. Only available when the port runs in target mode: Get the information for this port using the WWN displayed above.

$ cat /sys/class/fc_host/host*/statistics $ cat /sys/class/fc_host/host*/port_state Get the hardware information for the HBA to determine if the HBA runs fine, including the PCI registers mapping, capabilities description, and the driver in use:

The issue(s) can be caused by cabling, SFP, san switch, DWDM, HBA or ISL and those components will need to be analyzed and evaluated. If the outputs show many or steadily increasing error counts, that indicates one or more issues with the fabric infrastructure. The commands below can be used, on the respective operating system, to gather the necessary information. If there is an issue in the SAN environment, it is necessary to get the information/statistics from the SAN fabric for analysis. These environments provide the initiator device driver which can login to the SAN client media server and mount an pseudo target device “ARCHIVE PYTHON” so that the backup or restore can be use the fiber transport (FT).

NetBackup SAN Client is supported on the Linux, Solaris, Windows, HP-UX and AIX operating systems.
