Chapter 9: Exporting SAN Information

The Emulex HBA Manager application enables you to create reports about discovered SAN elements. Reports are generated in .xml and .csv format and include all the SAN information that is displayed through the various the Emulex HBA Manager application tabs.

NOTE:    Creating a SAN report can take several minutes for a large SAN.

To create a SAN report, perform the following steps:

1.    From the File menu, select Export SAN Info.

2.    Browse to a folder and enter a file name with a .xml or .csv extension.

3.    Click Save to start the export process.

During the export process, progress is displayed in the lower-right side of the progress bar. On Windows, you cannot change views, reset, or download firmware during the export process.

ATTENTION:    The Emulex HBA Manager application cannot retrieve data from an offline adapter or port and will display incorrect information for that adapter or port. Adapters and ports must be online for the application to display accurate information.
