smhba.conf - configuration file for the SMHBAAPI library
The /etc/smhba.conf file is used to specify the Vendor-Specific Libraries
that are installed on the system. This file is used by the Common Library to
load the individual VSLs when HBA_LoadLibrary(3HBAAPI) is called. If
changes are made to the file while the library is in use, the library should
be freed and reloaded. A version 1 VSL is compatible only with a version 1
Common Library. A version 2 VSL is compatible with both a version 1 and a
version 2 Common Library.
Each VSL entry is a single line of the form:
"name" "library path"
where:
name
is the description of library. The library name should be
prepended with the domain of the manufacturer of the library.
library path
is the absolute path to the shared object library
file.

HBA_LoadLibrary(3HBAAPI), libSMHBAAPI(3LIB), attributes(5)
The SMHBAAPI library is provided in both 32-and 64-bit versions, but only one
configuration file is specified. As a result, both 32- and 64-bit VSL
libraries must be specified within the same file. When using the 32-bit Common
Library, the 64-bit VSLs will fail to load. When using the 64-bit Common
Library, the 32-bit VSLs will fail to load. These failures are silently
ignored by the Common Library during normal usage, but can result in warning
messages when running client applications in a debugger.
