Yes

Time interval (seconds) to

 

time

Specific

 

 

 

 

increment LUN queue depth.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This driver property causes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the LPFC driver to decrement

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a LUN’s queue depth, if a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

queue full condition is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

received from the target. The

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

queue depth will be

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

decremented down to a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

minimum of 1. The variables

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

dqfull-throttle-up-inc and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

dqfull-throttle-up-time are

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

used to restore the queue

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

depth back to the original. The

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

dqfull-throttle-up-time driver

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

property defines a time, in

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

seconds, that is used to tell

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when to increase the current

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

queue depth. If the current

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

queue depth isn't equal to the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lun-queue-depth, and the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

driver stop_send_io flag is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

equal to 0 for that device,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

increment the current queue

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

depth by dqfull-throttle-up-inc

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(don't exceed the lun-queue-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

depth). So, if both driver

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

properties are set to 1, then

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the driver increments the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

current queue depth once per

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

second until it hits the lun-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

queue-depth. The only other

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

way to restore the queue

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

depth (besides rebooting),

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

back to the original LUN

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

throttle, is by running the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

command

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

/opt/lpfc/resetqdepth X. This

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

will restore the LUN throttle of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

all LUNs for HBA X back to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the original value.

0

1

Yes

This driver property specifies

 

 

Specific

 

 

 

 

if the DH-CHAP is enabled or

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

not. When set to 1, also set up

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

two other driver properties

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

such as auth-cfgparms and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

auth-keys. When set to 0, DH-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CHAP support is disabled and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

auth-cfgparms and auth-keys

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

are ignored. Any per HBA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

instance setup, for example,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lpfcX-enable-auth=1, 0 will

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

overwrite the value set by

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

enable-auth.
