HBA Type

Similar to a Nautobot Device Type, an HBA Type represents a discrete model of an HBA, as defined by the Manufacturer, Name, and Part Number. HBA Types are instantiated as HBAs installed within Devices, or as available spares in a Location. For example, you may define an HBA Type for an Supermicro - storage controller (RAID) - SAS 12Gb/s - PCIe 3.0 x8, part number AOC-SAS3-9380-8E. Multiple instances of the HBA Type, named hba_0, hba_1, etc., can then be created as HBAs installed in a particular Device.
