HI Chintan,
If you just want to know the qdepth without installing any software. The quickest and the easiest way is to extract an scli utility from emcreports. If you have ever run EMCreports on this server then go to this location:
C:\windows\Emcreports\bin
and execute scli:
On the cmd prompt, select HBA parameters -> select HBA port -> HBA parameter.
**This command line utility is also on the qlogic website**
Thanks,
Saurabh

You still could install SanSurfer, but if you really don't want to do that, you will need to reboot the host and during the POST hit CTRL-Q to enter the HBA's BIOS. Once you're in the QLogic BIOS setup , you will be able to see the current execution throttle (queue depth) and change it if you like. You can do this for each HBA, without having to reboot your host and press CTRL-Q each time.
If you had SanSurfer, you could view the values online, but nevertheless you'd still have to reboot your host whenever you changed any numbers in the execution throttle.
