Has anyone had any luck querying Emulex HBA’s firmware revision, or is that possible in Bigfix?

This may be tricky I believe you are looking from bigfix prespective. From HBAnyware you can get the firmware version.
Need to do more research on this

Other option is to run to first get hba list by running hbacmd listhbas porting it to a file and then extract the WWN and run another command hbacmd hbaattrib for that wwn and saving it to a file.

Is there any other option.

Hi rkc,
Yep… the process you laid out of running a tool, piping the results to a file, and returning the file results in a property is the way to go if you want to get data that is not natively returned by the agent’s inspectors.
I suppose you could check WMI to see if this info was available…

did you guys figure this one out? i know i can get the firmware information from HBAnywhere, but getting it from BigFix would be awesome.

I looked up some stuff with WMI, but not sure how helpful this is yet or how I can relate it to BigFix relevance for an analysis.

I can’t test it on my system, but maybe try starting with this:
selects “* from MSiSCSI_HBAInformation” of wmi
