46 FCA2214/FCA2214DC PCI-X Host Bus Adapters for Linux, NetWare, and Windows Installation
Setting
Execution Throttle—This setting specifies the maximum number of
commands executing on any one port. When a port's execution throttle is
reached, no new commands are executed until the current command finishes
executing. The valid options for this setting are 1–256. The default is 16.
Fast Command Posting—This setting decreases command execution time
by minimizing the number of interrupts. The default is Disabled.
>4GByte Addressing—This option should be Enabled if the system has more
than 4 GB of memory available. The default is Disabled.
LUNs per Target—This setting specifies the number of LUNs per target.
Multiple LUN support is typically for RAID boxes that use LUNs to map
drives. The default is 8. If you do not need multiple LUN support, set the
number of LUNs to 0.
Enable LIP Reset—This setting determines the type of loop initialization
process (LIP) reset that is used when the operating system initiates a bus reset
routine. When this setting is Yes, the driver initiates a global LIP reset to clear
the target device reservations. When this setting is No, the driver initiates a
global LIP reset with full login. The default is No.
Enable LIP Full Login—This setting instructs the ISP chip to re-login to all
ports after any LIP. The default is Yes.
Enable Target Reset—This setting enables the drivers to issue a Target
Reset command to all devices on the loop when a SCSI Bus Reset command
is issued. The default is No.
Login Retry Count—This setting specifies the number of times the software
tries to log in to a device. The default is 8 retries.
