Version 1.0.5 HP FC HBA Profile 11
The HP FC HBA Profile represents the collection of HBAs in CIM using HPFCHBA_FCPort and
associating it to HPFCHBA_ComputerSystem through the HPFCHBA_ComputerSystemFCPort
association. The HPFCHBA_ComputerSystem contains a consolidated status built using the status of all
associated HBAs. The individual port status is contained in HPFCHBA_FCPort.
The HPFCHBA_PortController represents the logical behavior of the HBA card. It is associated to the
HPFCHBA_ComputerSystem through the HPFCHBA_ComputerSystemPortController association and
associated to the FC ports through the HPFCHBA_PortControllerFCPort association.
HPFCHBA_PortController’s HPFCHBA_PhysicalPackage is associated with HPFCHBA_Product; which
holds information about the HBA (including vendor and model names). To understand the containment to
the HBAs physical implementation the HPFCHBA_PortControllers are associated to
HPFCHBA_PhysicalPackage through the HPFCHBA_PhysicalPackagePortController association.
HPFCHBA_ComputerSystem is the central class. There is only one instance of
HPFCHBA_ComputerSystem no matter how many ports or port controllers. A single FC HBA can have
more than one port controller. Each port controller has one or more FC ports.
The overall status of all HPFCHBA_FCPort(s) can be found in
HPFCHBA_GroupSystemSpecificCollection.
