The Host Driver Parameters Tab

The Host Driver Parameters tab (Figure 8) enables you to view and edit the HBA driver settings contained in a specific host. The host driver parameters are global values and apply to all HBAs in that host unless they are overridden by parameters assigned to a specific HBA using the HBA Driver Parameters tab. For each parameter, the tab shows the current value, the range of acceptable values, the default value, and whether the parameter is dynamic (a dynamic parameter allows the change to take effect without resetting the HBA or rebooting the system).

For more information on changing the parameters for a single HBA, see Setting Driver Parameters for an HBA on page 61.For more information changing the parameters for the host, see Setting Driver Parameters for a Host on page 62.
