Depends on the make of the HBA but for Emulex with IBM SDD, I use
/usr/sbin/hbanyware/hbacmd portstat <WWNP>
or
/opt/IBMsdd/bin/datapath query adapter
which work well.

/usr/sbin/fcinfo. ie: fcinfo hba-port (That "hba-port" is literal, don't
substitute it...)
"fcinfo hba-port -l" will show link status, which I believe is what you want.

Yes, there is. The name of it escapes me at the moment. It reports up
or down, the speed, and a couple of other things. Unfortunately, I've
forgotten the name. It may come to me in a few minutes, hours, or days.
Unfortunately Unix does not provide any easy means of finding a random
man page unless you know its name!

Yes, there is such a tool. Sorry, I don't recall it's name and Unix
does not seem to provide any way to locate a man page without knowing
its name. man -k network will bury you in useless information. Likewise
man -k link.

Chris,

dladm seems only be able to show network interfaces. I'm interested in
the FC HBA link status.

Yes you're right - the wrong type of link.

i think luxadm is the tool you search for, but you can also use
lputil for Emulex cards (HBAnywhere)
scli for Qlogic cards (SanSurferCLI)
fcinfo for Solaris 10
luxadm -e port for Solaris 8/9/10
cfgadm -al (think it shows online for PWN)
cfgadm -al -o show_FCP_devs
maybe kstat
maybe picladm
