Compaq HSZ80 manual 103, Transferraterequested=Asynchronous

5–103

TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=ASYNCHRONOUS

TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=20MHZ (Default)

TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=10MHZ

TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=5MHZ

Specifies the maximum data transfer rate for the controller to use in communicating with the device. You may need to limit the transfer rate to accommodate long cables between the controllers and the device.

TRANSPORTABLE

NOTRANSPORTABLE (Default)

Indicates whether a disk can be accessed exclusively by StorageWorks controllers.

NOTE: Setting the switch to TRANSPORTABLE forces a disk to be LOCAL.

Set the TRANSPORTABLE switch for disks only.

Storagesets cannot be made transportable. Specify NOTRANSPORTABLE for all disks used in RAIDsets, stripesets, mirrorsets, and sparesets. Transportable disks do not contain any metadata or restricted areas on the disk. Therefore, transportable disks forfeit the advantage metadata provides. Transportable disks can be moved to a non- StorageWorks environment with their data intact.

If you specify the NOTRANSPORTABLE switch and there is no metadata on the unit, the unit must be initialized. If you specify TRANSPORTABLE for a disk that was originally initialized as a NOTRANSPORTABLE, you should initialize the disk.

If you specify NOTRANSPORTABLE and there is no metadata on the unit, the unit must be initialized.

NOTE: Compaq recommends you avoid specifying TRANSPORTABLE unless transportability of the device or media is imperative and there is no other way to accomplish moving the data.
