The following is how I've always done it, correct or not. Do the
following with your HBA device name:

lscfg -vpl fcs0

You should get something like:

fcs0 U787B.001.DNWBBF3-P1-C1-T1 FC Adapter

Part Number.................03N7067
EC Level....................A
Serial Number...............1B63104E78
Manufacturer................001B
Feature Code/Marketing ID...197E
FRU Number.................. 03N7067
Brand.......................H0
Device Specific.(ZM)........3
Network Address.............
ROS Level and ID............0288193D
Device Specific.(Z0)........1001206D
Device Specific.(Z1)........00000000
Device Specific.(Z2)........00000000
Device Specific.(Z3)........03000909
Device Specific.(Z4)........FF801412
Device Specific.(Z5)........0288193D
Device Specific.(Z6)........0683193D
Device Specific.(Z7)........0783193D
Device Specific.(Z8)........
Device Specific.(Z9)........TS1.90X13
Device Specific.(ZA)........T1D1.90X13
Device Specific.(ZB)........T2D1.90X13
Device Specific.(YL)........U787B.001.DNWBBF3-P1-C1-T1


PLATFORM SPECIFIC

Name: fibre-channel
Model: LP10000
Node: fibre-channel@1
Device Type: fcp
Physical Location: U787B.001.DNWBBF3-P1-C1-T1


Take the "Feature Code/Marketing Number", search for in the the IBM
Hardware Information Center

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infoce...1r3s/index.jsp

For mine above, 197E, results in a 2Gb Fiber Channel PCI-X adapter.
The firmware, look at "Device Specific.(Z9)........TS1.90X13",
the 90X13 is the firmware level. Note that if it's a scsi card, you'd
look at the "ROM Level" for firmware and use the "Customer Car ID
Number" in searching the info center for the adapter model.

The LP10000 indicates an Emulex Light Pulse 10000

Emulex has made IBM's adapters for as long as I can remember.

Cambex cards are also supported. We use them for our EMC virtual tape
library.

....also try lsmcode -d fcsX (X = 0, 1, 2....) which gives the microcode
level.
