Token Timeouts
The RtTokenTimeout parameter controls the amount of time the FSM waits for clients to respond to callbacks. In most normal SANs, the default two- second setting is sufficient. This value may need to be changed for a SAN that has a mixture of client machine types (Linux, NT, IRIX, etc.) that all have different TCP/IP characteristics. Also, large numbers of clients (greater than 32) may also require increasing the parameter.
For example, if the FSM should ever fail, the clients will attempt to reconnect. When the FSM comes back online, the amount of time the clients take to
If a client times out on a token retraction, the original requestor receives an error from the FSM that includes the IP address of the offending client. This error is logged to syslog, and alternatively to the desktop on Windows clients. This can help in diagnosing reconnect failures, and in determining if the token time value should be increased.
