how to tell HBA firmware and driver version from OS

User754933-OracleAug 20 2010 — edited Aug 20 2010

From a RedHat or OEL OS:

How can I tell:
(1) The firmware version of the HBA card (I have a qlogic board) that is installed?
(2) The version of the HBA driver that's being used?

I cannot:

* Use qlogic sansurfer since it requires devel packages to be installed.
* See anything of significance under /proc/scsi so we can't depend on that.
All it has is:
[root@e1198sdb1 scsi]# pwd ; ls
/proc/scsi
device_info mptsas scsi sg usb-storage

Please advice. Any ideas? I'd rather not reboot to find out the firmware if I can avoid it.
But the driver -- that has to be locatable from within the OS. But how?
