Driver Parameters
5-8
FL0054601-00 B
/REQCFG
Global
This parameter requires reading the configuration file
QL2X00.CFG. All devices not specified in this file are
ignored. If this file does not exist, all devices are ignored.
The QL2X00.CFG file is located in the default DOS
directory (C:\NWSERVER); this file is written by QLogic
SANsurfer software or the CFG.NLM test tool.
/REQCFG parameter example:
LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /REQCFG
/CONSOLE
Global
This parameter sends system alerts to the server console
when failover and failback events occur.
/CONSOLE parameter example:
LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /CONSOLE
/MAXLUNS=
n
Global
This parameter sets the maximum number of LUNs
allowed during the LUN scan. The range of LUNs
searched is 0 to (
n
– 1).
/MAXLUNS parameter example:
LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /MAXLUNS=256
/SKIPREPORT
Instance
This parameter avoids executing the SCSI Report LUNs
command during LUN scanning. Omitting this parameter
allows the driver to use the response from the SCSI
Report LUNS command to optimize the LUN scan by
performing SCSI Inquiry commands only to LUNs listed
in the response.
/SKIPREPORT parameter example:
LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /SKIPREPORT
/INQUIRY
Instance
This parameter forces the use of SCSI Inquiry commands
during the LUN scan regardless of the LUNs listed by the
response to the SCSI Report LUNs command. The
existence of a particular LUN is determined by the results
of the SCSI Inquiry command to that LUN.
/INQUIRY parameter example:
LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /INQUIRY
/STARTUNIT
Instance
This parameter sends the SCSI Start Unit command to
each LUN during the LUN scan. On some multiple port
RAID subsystems, this parameter may cause LUN
ownership to transfer across ports.
/STARTUNIT parameter example:
LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /STARTUNIT
