·  Deployment and Management Features
  -  Universal Boot capability allows the appropriate 

boot environment to be automatically selected 

for any given hardware.

  -  Boot from SAN capability reduces system 

management costs and increases uptime.

  -  Detailed real-time event logging and tracing 

enables quick diagnosis of SAN problems.

  -  Beaconing feature flashes the HBA LEDs, 

simplifying their identification within server 

racks.

  -  Environmental monitoring feature helps to 

optimize  SAN availability.

·  Emulex’s automated installation facilities and 

extensive management capabilities speed HBA 

deployment and device management, while 

reducing administration costs and protecting IT 

investment.  

·  Emulex LightPulse HBA management capabilities 

enable secure, centralized discovery, monitoring, 

reporting, and administration of Emulex HBAs 

on local and remote hosts. Powerful automation 

capabilities facilitate remote driver parameter, 

firmware and boot code upgrades. Advanced 

diagnostic features such as HBA beaconing and 

HBA statistics help to optimize management and 

network performance while the environmental 

monitoring feature helps to maintain optimum 

host to fabric connections.  In addition to the 

GUI interface, management functions can also 

be performed via a scriptable Command Line 

Interface  

(CLI) as well as a web browser. With in-band and  

out-of-band management capabilities, Emulex  

provides data center administrators with the 

greatest level of management flexibility.

·  Automated installation and configuration of driver 

and management tools simplifies deployment of 

multiple HBAs for Windows environments. A single 

installation of drivers and management utilities 

eliminates multiple reboots and ensures that each 

component is installed correctly and the HBA is 

ready to use.  

·  Emulex’s management instrumentation complies 

to Open Management Standards, such as SMI-S 

and common HBA API support, which enables 

seamless upward integration into enterprise 

storage and server management solutions.
