Parameter

 

Description

RTTOV = n

 

Values are in milliseconds from 100 to 511. Default = 256.

 

 

Represents time-out between phases of Off-line to On-line

 

 

protocol.

 

 

 

ScanDown = n

 

Values 0 or 1. Default = 0. 0 = Lowest AL_PA = Lowest

 

 

physical disk (ascending AL_PA order). 1 = Highest AL_PA =

 

 

Lowest Physical Disk (ascending SEL_ID order).

 

 

 

SilFlags = n

SimulateDevice = n

Values from 0-2. Default = 0. Controls which driver interface to use. 0 = automode; attempt SLI-2 first. If that fails, uses SLI-1. 1 = always use SLI-1. 2 = always use SLI-2.

Values 0 or 1. Default = 0. 0 = do not create a “ dummy” disk device. 1 = create a dummy disk to force the driver to load even if no disk devices are present at boot time.

SnsALL = n

Topology = n

TrafficCop = n

Values 0 or 1. Default = 1. Controls which N_Ports are queried from the NameServer. 0 = SCSI FCP only. 1 = All N_Ports.

Values 0 or 1. Default = 0. 0 = FC_AL (loop), 1 = PT-PT Fabric. When set to 1, FLOGI, SCR/RSCN and NameServer queries are employed.

Values 0 or 1. Default = 0. 1 = enable FC-AL loop master to run unfair and break potential arbitration problems by sending frames to itself. 0 = run fair all the time.
