Show SCSI / HBA modules in ESXi 6.5 with file and version information
Posted by jpluimers on 2019/05/02
A small script I made: Show SCSI / HBA modules in ESXi 6.5 with file and version information:
MODULES=`esxcfg-scsidevs --hbas | awk 'FNR > 0 {print $2}'`
for MODULE in $MODULES ; do
# echo "Probing $MODULE"
vmkload_mod --showinfo $MODULE | grep 'file: \|Version'
done
The script is based on ideas from [WayBack] Determining Network/Storage firmware and driver version in ESXi 4.x and later (1027206) | VMware KB
It works in at least ESXi 6.5 where it shows this on one of my systems:
