G.7 Locking the Cache Setting

You can prevent host systems from using SCSI mode-select commands to change the Galaxy 65 Subsystem’s write-back cache setting. Some operating systems disable write cache. If cache lock is enabled, the host cannot modify the cache setting. The default setting is disabled.

This option is useful in some environments where the host system disables the SM module’s write-back cache, resulting in degraded performance. A change to this setting on either SM module is automatically updated on the other SM module.

To lock the cache setting:

1From the System Menu, select Configuration Menu and press Enter. The Configuration Menu displays.

2Select Option Configuration and press Enter. The Option Configuration screen displays.

3Select Cache Lock and press Enter.

The Cache Lock screen displays. The current setting is marked with an * next to it.
