Identifying the Card
The card has a label-sticker with the serial
number in the format ‘P
XH812-YY-ZZZ
ZZZ’, where
, YY denotes the card revision
(
e.g. CC
) and ZZZZZZ denotes the serialized production number (
e.g. 012345
).
You can get this information from the card, using lspci in Linux:
First run lspci, and identify the card. It will show up like this:
01:00.0 PCI bridge: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX 8717 16-lane, 8-Port PCI Express Gen 3
(8.0 GT/s) Switch with DMA (rev ca)
01:00.1 System peripheral: PLX Technology, Inc. Device 87d0 (rev ca)
01:00.2 System peripheral: PLX Technology, Inc. Device 87d0 (rev ca)
02:00.0 PCI bridge: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX 8717 16-lane, 8-Port PCI Express Gen 3
(8.0 GT/s) Switch with DMA (rev ca)
03:00.0 Bridge: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX 8732 32-lane, 8-Port PCI Express Gen 3
(8.0 GT/s) Switch (rev ca)
Second, do an lspci
–
vvvv
–
s <device>, and loo
k for the ‘Serial’ –
string
# lspci -s 01:00.0 -vvv | grep Serial
Capabilities: [180 v1] Device Serial Number 00-00-44-45-00-00-05-48
This shows the card as revision 0x4445 (
hexadecimal values of the ‘DE’ letters in the ASCII table
), with the production
number 0x00000548 (
001352 in decimal
).
In Windows, we export the serial number through the event-log where the transparent-mode driver is loaded (v 1.0.1 or
later required). This driver is available through the download section at
