SCSI ID |
| Information |
| Device’s SCSI Identifier. |

Device Identifier | Information | Indicates the ASCII device identifier string, as extracted | ||||||

Sync Rate |
| Configuration |
| Indicates the maximum synchronous data transfer rate in | ||||

Scan ID |
| Configuration |
| Indicates whether to scan for this SCSI identifier at boot | ||||
|
| [Yes / No] |
| time. Utilizing this setting allows you to ignore a device. | ||||
|
|
|
| This decreases boot time by disabling inquiry of unused | ||||
|
|
|
| SCSI identifiers. |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| Set this option to No if there is a device that you do not | ||||
|
|
|
| want to be available to the system. Also, on a bus with | ||||
|
|
|
| only a few devices attached, the user can speed up boot | ||||
|
|
|
| time by changing this setting to No for all unused SCSI | ||||
|
|
|
| IDs. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |||||
Scan LUNs > 0 | Configuration |
| Indicates whether to scan for LUNs greater than zero for | |||||
|
| [Yes / No] |
| a device. LUN 0 is always queried. This option should be | ||||
|
|
|
| used if a | ||||
|
|
|
| LUNs or if it is desired to reduce the visibility of a | ||||
|
|
|
|
|
| |||
|
|
|
| Set this option to No if you have problems with a device | ||||
|
|
|
| that responds to all LUNs whether they are occupied or | ||||
|
|
|
| not. Also, if a SCSI device with multiple LUNs exists on | ||||
|
|
|
| your system but you do not want all of those LUNs to be | ||||
|
|
|
| available to the system, then set this option to No. This | ||||
|
|
|
| will limit the scan to LUN 0. |
