Port down retry count: Specifies the number of times the software retries a
command to a port that is returning port-down status. The default is 30 retries.
Drivers load RISC code: When this option is set to Enabled, the host adapter
uses the RISC firmware that is embedded in the software device driver. When
this option is set to Disabled, the software device driver loads the RISC
firmware found on the system. The default is Enabled.
Note: To load the embedded device driver software, the device driver being
loaded must support this setting. If the driver does not support this
setting, the result is the same as if this option is set to Disabled,
regardless of the setting. Leaving this option enabled ensures a
certified combination of software driver and RISC firmware.
Enable database updates: When this option is set to Enabled, it allows the
software to save the loop configuration information in flash memory as the
system powers down. The default is No.
Disable database load: When this option is set to Enabled, the device
database is read from the Registry during driver initialization. When this option
is set to Disabled, the device database is created dynamically during device
driver initialization. The default is No.
Note: This option usually applies to the Windows NT and Windows 2000
operating environments.
IOCB allocation: Specifies the maximum number of buffers from the firmware
buffer pool that are allocated to any one port. The default setting is 256
buffers.
Extended error logging: Provides additional error and debug information to
the operating system. When this option is set to Enabled, events are logged
into the Windows NT Event Viewer or Windows 2000 Event Viewer (depending
on the environment you are in). The default is Disabled.
Extended firmware settings
You can access this option from the Configuration Settings menu. The default
settings for the host adapter are listed in Table 3 on page 27 and are described
immediately following the table.
