MAS Fibre Channel World
Wide Name (WWN)
Note 1: As of MAS release 3.05, you will find a pre-installed
script, showfc, that will display
all this information about your fibre-channel adapters. To run the
script, open a terminal shell session and enter the following
command:
showfc
Otherwise, refer to the following instructions to show your
fibre-channel adapter information.
Note 2: If for some reason the fibre-channel adapter drivers
have failed to load properly on your MAS, or you wish to determine
the adapter information without booting the MAS to a fully
operational state, you can
use this procedure to directly
query the hardware for the WWN and other information.
To determine the World Wide Name of the MAS Fibre Channel port(s),
use the following procedure:
- At a terminal shell prompt, enter the following command:
ls /proc/scsi/qla*/?
The system will display an entry for each fibre-channel adapter
installed in the MAS. For example, if there were one QLA2200 and
one QLA2300 installed, you would see output similar to
the following:
/proc/scsi/qla2200/2
/proc/scsi/qla2300/3
Each file listed contain detailed information about one
of the fibre-channel card(s) installed in the MAS. Your file
name(s) may differ; use your proper file name(s) in the
following steps.
- To see the information about each card, use the
cat command on each of the files
listed above. For example:
cat /proc/scsi/qla2200/2
The output will be similar to the following:
QLogic PCI to Fibre Channel Host Adapter
for ISP2100/ISP2200/ISP2200A:
Firmware version: 2.01.37, Driver version 5.36.3
Entry address = e0844060
HBA: QLA2200 , Serial# C51731
Request Queue = 0x1fa50000, Response Queue = 0x1fa6c000
Request Queue count= 512, Response Queue count= 64
Number of pending commands = 0x0
Number of queued commands = 0x0
Number of free request entries = 511
Number of mailbox timeouts = 0
Number of ISP aborts = 0
Number of loop resyncs = 0
Number of retries for empty slots = 0
Number of reqs in retry_q = 0
Number of reqs in done_q = 0
Number of pending in_q reqs = 0

SCSI Device Information:
scsi-qla0-adapter-node=200000e08b0353d7;
scsi-qla0-adapter-port=210000e08b0353d7;
SCSI LUN Information:
(Id:Lun)
Note the adapter-node and adapter-port entries which have been
highlighted in the example above. These are the
World Wide Node Name (WWNN)
and World Wide Port Name (WWPN) for this adapter.
- If you have additional cards, repeat the
cat command on each of
the files to see the additional cards' information.
If for some reason the fibre-channel
adapter drivers have failed to load properly on your MAS,
or you wish to determine the adapter information without
booting the MAS to a fully operational state, you can
use the following procedure to directly
query the hardware for the WWN and other information.
During the boot process, when "Press <CTRL-Q>" appears
on the monitor, press <CTRL-Q>. This will display the
Qlogic Fast!UTIL configuration menu.
The first option, "Configuration Options", will
be highlighted. Press <Enter>.
The first option, "Host Adapter Settings", will
be highlighted. Press <Enter>.
On this screen, the adapter's WWN is displayed as "Adapter Port
Name".
