Let's expand that analysis to verifying that those HBA's also have a certain driver version and a

certain firmware level, as shown in the following example profile:

any profile name

the 'OS' field = Solaris

the 'Model' field = LP-9000

the 'DriverVersion' field = whatever

the 'FirmwareVersion' field = whatever

IMPORTANT:

The use of special characters in the field values are interpreted as regular

expressions (or wildcards) by the search. For example, "Model LP900[02]" will match the

values "LP-9000" or "LP-9002". "FirmwareVersion 3.90A[0-9]" will match any firmware

version 3.90A0 through 3.90A9.

Once you have your profiles configured, run HBA Risk Analysis or Switch Risk Analysis. The tool

compares every HBA or switch against the profiles and flags any HBA or switch that does not

match at least one profile.

Global Change Management

Accessing Global Change Management

Saving the Current Configuration
To save the current configuration, use option 0. The current configuration is saved to a DAT file in the

following directory. This file can be opened by using a text editor, such as Notepad:

%JBOSS4_DIST%\server\appiq\remotescripts\advisors\saved-configurations

The DAT file contains the data for the elements discovered in the configuration. The following is an

example of a portion of a DAT file for a saved configuration:

$VAR1 = 'conf3';

$VAR2 = 1117783473;

__DATA__

$VAR1 = {

'1002' => {

'PROPERTIES' => {

'ID' => '1002',

'HostType' => 'Default',

'DnsName' => 'QA67',

'SupportFlags' => '7',

....

where

$VAR1

is the configuration name, which is conf3 in this case.
