FDMI subprofile
The Fabric-Device Management Interface (FDMI) enables the management of devices such as Host
Bus Adapters (HBAs) through the fabric. This subprofile models the discovery of HBA type devices
without having the SMI Agent reside on the host containing the HBA. It shows how an HBA is hosted
on the system (host) along with the nodes contained in it and ports controlled by it. It allows HBAs
to expose product information such as firmware version, vendor, serial number, and so on. This
model supports all HBA configurations such as single-node single-port HBA, single-node dual-port
HBA, and dual-node dual-port HBA.
