Table 8 lists the current parameters that you can set.
Table 8: Drive Parameters
Parameter Description
AbortStatus = 0xn Values from 0x00 – 0xFF. Controls NT SRB error status
for general Abort conditions.
Default = SRB_STATUS_BUS_RESET (0x0E) which will
not cause the current NT class driver to throttle down I/O
performance after four of these errors have been
received (on a per-LUN basis).
ALTOV = n Values are in milliseconds from 1 to 15. Default = 15.
ARBTOV = n Values are milliseconds from 500 to 10000. Default =
1000. Represents FC_AL arbitration time-out prior to LIP.
Class = n Values from 0 to 2. Default = 2. Controls which Fibre
Channel Class will be used: 0 = Class 1, 1 = Class 2, 2 =
Class 3.
EDTOV = n Values are in milliseconds from 500 to 10000. Default =
1000. Represents error detect time-out value prior to LIP.
EnableDPC = n Values 0 or 1. Default = 0. 0 = process I/O completion at
interrupt level, 1 = process at DPC level.
FrameSizeMSB = n Values from 1 – 8. Default = 8. Controls the upper byte of
the receive FrameSize if issued in PLOGI. This allows the
FrameSize be constrained on 256 byte increments from
256 (1) – 2048 (8).
HardALPA = 0xn Values from 0x01 – 0xEF. Default = 0x01 allows the HBA
use a hard assigned loop address. NOTE: Only valid
ALPAs can be used (see
Table 9 on page 44).
LinkTimeOut = n Values are in seconds from 1 – 500. Default = 60.
Controls the time-out at which link no longer busy with
requests but issues SELECTION_TIMEOUT error status.
LogErrors = n Values 0 or 1. Default = 0. 0 = don’t log general
HBA/drive errors. 1 = use Event Log to log general
errors.
NodeTimeOut = n Values are in seconds from 1–255.
Default = 10. Controls the time-out at which a formerly
logged-in node will issue SELECTION_TIMEOUT error
status to an I/O request.
