Confirming driver package installation in Solaris systems

Verify if the adapter driver installed successfully using the following commands:

NOTE

Brocade 804 and 1007 adapters are not supported on Solaris systems so these commands do not
apply to those adapters.

pkgchk -nv bfa
This checks for and lists the installed adapter storage driver package files.

pkginfo -l bfa
This displays details about installed Brocade storage (bfa) adapter drivers. Look for information
to display like in the following example. Note that the VERSION may be different, depending on
the driver version you installed. The ARCH and DESC information may also be different,
depending on your host system platform. If the adapter driver package is installed, bfa_pkg
should display with a “completely installed” status.

storage drivers, verify that an entry for bfa exists and that the ID loaded. For network drivers,
verify that an entry for bna exists and that the ID loaded.
