			are used for FC Extended
			Link Services (ELS) and one
			for each FCP command
			issued in SLI-2 mode. If you
			want to queue lots of FCP
			commands to the HBA, then
			increase num-bufs for better
			performance. These buffers
			consume physical memory
			and are also used by the
			device driver to process loop
			initialization and rediscovery
			activities. Important: The
			driver must always be
			configured with at least
			several dozen ELS
			command buffers; Emulex
			recommends at least 128.
