Diagnostic Support for All Other Supported Operating Systems

Language:

Diagnostic support for the HBA with all supported operating systems other than the Oracle Solaris OS is available through version 11.1.218.x, or newer, of the OneCommand Manager application graphical user interface (GUI) or the OneCommand Manager application command-line interface (CLI) application. These applications support the following functions:

Production of useful firmware dump information, in the unlikely event of a failure (from the OneCommand Manager CLI only)
Discovery of local and remote hosts, HBAs, targets, and LUNs
Ability to reset HBAs
HBA driver parameters setup
Firmware updates
Ability to enable or disable the system BIOS
Diagnostic tests on HBAs
Management of out-of-band HBAs
Management of local and in-band remote HBAs

For detailed information about performing any of these functions through the OneCommand Manager applications, see the Emulex OneCommand Manager application documentation, located at the Oracle support area of the Emulex web site: https://www.broadcom.com/support/download-search/?pg=Storage+Adapters,+Controllers,+and+ICs&pf=Fibre+Channel+Host+Bus+Adapters&pn=&po=Oracle&pa=&dk=
