Displayed entry (Specified parameter) 
Description 

Connection Type

 (-p ct) 

 

Specify the connection type of a FC path between Hitachi Fibre Channel Adapter and the device attached 

to it. If “auto” is specified, this product negotiates with the device connected to it and automatically sets the 
connection type to “Arbitrated Loop” or “Point to Point” mode, depending on the situations. Usually, this 
parameter does not need to be changed manually. 

If LPAR manager is installed and LPAR is used on it, this parameter cannot be changed in the guest OS. 

Refer to HVM section in Hitachi Compute Blade User

Link Speed

 (-p sp) 

 

Specify the link speed of a FC path between Hitachi Fibre Channel Adapter and the device attached to it. 
The relations between specified value and the Link Speed are as follows. 

<Specified Parameter> 

<Link Speed> 

1 

1Gbps 

2 

2Gbps 

4 

4Gbps 

8 

8Gbps 

If “auto” is specified, this product negotiates with the device connected to it and automatically sets the link 

speed to a suitable value, depending on the situations. Usually, this parameter does not need to be 
changed manually. 

If LPAR manager is installed and LPAR is used on it, this parameter cannot be set in the guest OS. Refer 

to HVM section in Hitachi Compute Blade User’s Guide for details.. 

Login Delay Time

 (-p lo) 

 

In case it takes a long time to log into the target device, a larger delay time can be set to the adapter port by 

using this parameter. 

If LPAR manager is installed and LPAR is used on it, this parameter cannot be set in the guest OS. Refer to 

HVM section in Hitachi Compute Blade User’s Guide for details. 

Max Transfer Size

 (-p mt) 

 
 

This parameter defines the maximum data length of a single request. The parameter is set to the optimum 

value for a general purpose, so usually this parameter does not need to be changed. 

Even if the value is increased and exceeding a certain level, the performance usually remains the same 

level, although the memory used by the adapter is increased. 

Link Down Time

 (-p ld) 

 

Time out value in seconds for the next link up after the driver detected a link down. The parameter is set to 

the optimum value for a general purpose, so usually this parameter does not need to be changed.
