Using Driver-specific Parameters
Follow the instructions below to enter the registry values that affect the
configuration information for SCSI PCI device drivers. Each driver has its own key
reference in the registry. In this example, the Ultra160 key is used (adpu160m). The
other keys are aic78xx, aic78u2, adf6u160, and 2930u2. All SCSI host adapters
supported by the modified key are affected by the values you enter here. A list of valid
parameters follows:
·
/MAXTAGS= nnn — specifies the tagged command queue depth. If a number is
not specified, the tagged queue depth defaults to 128. Valid values are 1-255.
The data type for this value is REG_SZ.
·
/MEMMAP — when set, the SCSI manager is memory mapped. If this key is not
used, the default is I/O mapped. There are no valid values or default values . The
data type for this value is REG_SZ.
·
/BUS_FAIRNESS — when set, the SCSI bus avoids device starvation. There are
no valid values or default values. The data type for this value is REG_SZ.
To enter driver-specific parameters, follow these steps:
1. Select Run from the Start button.
NOTE Changes made with the Registry Editor do not take effect until
you restart your system.
NOTE The following parameters are case-sensitive and must be
entered exactly as shown. When entering multiple parameters,
each parameter must be separated by a space.
