Can we write "PowerCLI Script" to get HP RAID Card Details (Firmware & Driver)

For Example : Below ESX Native Command shows desired output for me.

But we needed equal PowerCLI script to below ESX command

# cat /proc/driver/cciss/cciss0

cciss0: HP Smart Array P400i Controller

Board ID: 0x3235103c

Firmware Version: 7.22# cat /proc/driver/hpsa/hpsa0

hpsa0: HP Smart Array P410i Controller

Board ID: 0x3245103c

Firmware Version: 5.70

Driver Version: HP HPSA Driver (v 5.0.0-17vmw)

Can this thread be deleted ?

Hi,

I have Deleted other Thread.. and will keep this Thread Open.. If I can get some answer??

We found few ESX boxes are getting PSOD's.. due to Old RAID Card drivers (hpsa driver)..

VMware analyzed PSOD.. and suggested to find & update all ESX boxes with latest RAID Card Drivers..

Trying to find a "PowerCLI" Script.. which can prepare a list of "ESX / ESXi boxes & Their RAID-Card Drivers"..

Thank you..

The following PowerCLI snippet will get you the server and controller type, firmware version and driver version of hpsa/Smart Array based storage controllers:

Get-VMhost | Sort | Select Name, Model,
@{N='Controller Type'; E={(Get-VMHostHba -VMHost $_ | ? {$_.Model -imatch '.*(hpsa|smart).*'}).Model}},
@{N='Controller Firmware'; E={($_.ExtensionData.Runtime.HealthSystemRuntime.SystemHealthInfo.NumericSensorInfo | ? {$_.Name -like '*hpsa*firmware*'}).Name}},
@{N='hpsa Driver Version'; E={($_.ExtensionData.Runtime.HealthSystemRuntime.SystemHealthInfo.NumericSensorInfo | ? {$_.Name -like '*scsi-hpsa*'}).Name}} | Format-Table -Autosize

Sample output:
