LSI SYM8953U manual Device Properties Fields and Descriptions, Field Field Type Description Value

Table 3.4 lists the fields and their descriptions.

Table 3.4	Device Properties Fields and Descriptions
Field		Field Type		Description
		[Value]
SCSI ID		Information		Device’s SCSI Identifier.
Device Identifier		Information	Indicates the ASCII device identifier string, as extracted
				from the device’s inquiry data.
Sync Rate		Configuration		Indicates the maximum synchronous data transfer rate in
		[0 / 5 / 10 / 20 / 40]	mega transfers per second.
				Mega Xfers	Data Width	Data Width	Synch
				per second	= 8 bits	= 16 bits	Period (ns)
				0 = Asynch	0 = Asynch	0 = Asynch	0 = Asynch
			5		5	10	200
			10		10	20	100
			20		20	40	50
			40		40	80	25
Data Width		Configuration		Maximum data width in bits.
		[8 / 16]
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 multi-LUN device responds to unoccupied
				LUNs or if it is desired to reduce the visibility of a
				multi-LUN device to LUN 0 only.
				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.
