McDATA® 4Gb SAN Switch for HP p-Class BladeSystem command line interface guide 147
ForceOfflineRSCN Enables (False) or disables (True) the immediate transmission of RSCN
messages when communication between a port and a device is
interrupted. If enabled, the RSCN message is delayed for 200 ms for
locally attached devices and 400 ms for devices connected through
other switches. The default is False.
ARB_FF Send ARB_FF (True) instead of IDLEs (False) on the loop. The default is
False.
InteropCredit
(External ports only)
Interoperability credit. The number of buffer-to-buffer credits per port. 0
means the default (8) is unchanged. Changing interoperability credits is
necessary only for E_Ports that are connected to non-FC-SW-2-compliant
switches. Contact your authorized maintenance provider for assistance in
using this feature.
FANEnable Fabric address notification. Enables (True) or disables (False) the
communication of the FL_Port address, port name, and node name to the
logged-in NL_Port. The default is True.
AutoPerfTuning Automatic performance tuning for FL_Ports only. The default is True.
• If AutoPerfTuning is enabled (True) and the port is an FL_Port,
MFSEnable is automatically enabled. LCFEnable and VIEnable are
overridden to False.
• If AutoPerfTuning is disabled (False), MFSEnable, LCFEnable, and
VIEnable retain their original values.
LCFEnable Link control frame preference routing. This parameter appears only if
AutoPerfTuning is False. Enables (True) or disables (False) preferred
routing of frames with R_CTL = 1100 (Class 2 responses). The default is
False. Enabling LCFEnable will disable MFSEnable.
MFSEnable Multi-Frame Sequence bundling. This parameter appears only if
AutoPerfTuning is False. Prevents (True) or allows (False) the interleaving
of frames in a sequence. The default is False. Enabling MFSEnable
disables LCFEnable and VIEnable.
VIEnable Virtual Interface (VI) preference routing. This parameter appears only if
AutoPerfTuning is False. Enables (True) or disables (False) VI preference
routing. The default is False. Enabling VIEnable will disable MFSEnable.
MSEnable Management server enable. Enables (True) or disables (False)
management server on this port. The default is True.
NoClose Loop circuit closure prevention. Enables (True) or disables (False) the
loop’s ability to remain in the open state indefinitely. True reduces the
amount of arbitration on a loop when there is only one device on the
loop. The default is False.
PDISCPingEnable Enables (True) or disables (False) the transmission of ping messages from
the switch to all devices on a loop port. The default is True.
