We’re in the middle of a fairly urgent process to review and remediate our servers’ compatibility with onTAP 7.3.3p6. We’ve got everything we need except HBA firmware levels. Does anyone know of a good WMI query we could run against multiple servers that would return the HBA firmware level? Most of the HBAs are HP-OEM’d QMH2462, running under Window 2003 and 2008R2.
I’m looking into SANSurfer, but if I can avoid adding new software to my servers then that would be preferred.
Apologies if you've already seen and discounted this, but you may be able to get this via the FCInfo or SCLI programs, there's a powershell example here; http://theolddogscriptingblog.wordpress.com/2010/06/17/powershell-sans-excel...
You may be able to avoid installing the software by putting it on a read only share and calling the binary direct via UNC? Not tried myself (yet), but its something I'm looking into, so would be interested to hear if you got it working without s/w installs..
cheers
