Streamlined installation and management,
unrivaled scalability, and industry-leading
virtualization support make the single-channel
Emulex LightPulse LPe11000 and dual-channel
LPe11002 ideal solutions for enterprise and
mixed-OS SAN environments. With powerful
management tools and broad platform support,
they deliver maximum performance in the broadest
range of applications and environments.
Proven design, architecture and interface
LightPulse HBAs’ highly integrated singlechip design minimizes onboard components,
while advanced error-checking and correcting
methods assure robust data integrity. The
Emulex firmware-based architecture enables
feature and performance upgrades without costly
hardware changes. The unique Service Level
Interface (SLI™) allows use of a common driver
across all models of Emulex HBAs. Installation
and management applications are designed to
minimize reboots and further simplify deployment.
Powerful management software
for maximum data center efficiency
The Emulex HBAnyware enterprise-class
management application has gained broad market
acceptance with over 6 million Fibre Channel
and FCoE ports managed to date. Building on
the success of the HBAnyware application,
Emulex has released OneCommand Manager.
OneCommand Manager’s multi-protocol, cross
platform architecture, provides centralized
management of Emulex adapters within the
enterprise data center. OneCommand Manager
streamlines IT administrative tasks by delivering
uniform management across heterogeneous data
center environments. With OneCommand Manager,
IT administrators can increase management
efficiency and flexibility by improving responsiveness
to dynamic business environments. To ensure
a transparent transition for customers who are
using Emulex’s existing HBAnyware management
solution, OneCommand Manager is backward
compatible with HBAnyware 4.1.

Management Features
· The Emulex AutoPilot Installer automates the HBA
installation process and significantly reduces time
to deployment and administrative costs. Automated
installation and configuration of driver and
management tools simplifies deployment of multiple
adapters within Windows environments. A single
installation of driver and management application
eliminates multiple reboots and ensures that each
component is installed correctly and the HBA is
ready to use.
™
· The Emulex OneCommand
Manager application
enables centralized discovery, monitoring,
reporting, and administration of Emulex HBAs
and UCNAs on local and remote hosts. Powerful
automation capabilities facilitate remote driver
parameter, firmware and boot code upgrades.
Advanced diagnostic features such as adapter port
beaconing and adapter 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.
· 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.
