Intel SEBFCM4 manual Scan Fibre Channel devices, Fibre Channel disk utility, Loopback data test

RIO operation mode: This setting specifies the reduced interrupt operation (RIO) mode, if supported by the software device driver. When the expansion card is in RIO mode, you can post multiple command completions in a single interrupt (see Table 7 on page 13).

Table 7. Fibre Channel Expansion Card RIO options and operation modes

Option	Operation mode
0	No multiple responses
5	Multiple responses with minimal interrupts
6	Interrupt when interruption delay timer expires or no action

Interrupt delay timer: This setting contains the value (in 100-microsecond increments) used by a timer to set the wait time between accessing a set of handles and generating an interrupt using direct memory access (DMA).

Scan Fibre Channel devices

Use this option to scan and list all the connected devices. Information about each device is listed, for example, vendor name, product name, and revision. This information is useful when you are configuring the Fibre Channel Expansion Card and attached devices.

Fibre Channel disk utility

The Fibre Channel disk utility is not supported in the SBCE Fibre Channel Options.

Use this option to scan the Fibre Channel loop bus and list all the connected devices by loop ID. You can select a disk device and perform a low-level format or verify the disk media or data.

Attention: Performing a low-level format removes all data on the disk.

Loopback data test

This option is not available with your SBCE configuration.
