config.switch.raTOV
Syntax raTOV timeoutValue
Purpose This command sets the resource allocation timeout value (R_A_TOV)
for the switch.
NOTE: The switch must be set offline before this command is entered.
Special care should be taken when scripting this command due to its
relationship with E_D_TOV.
Parameters This command has one parameter:
Command Example
Root> config switch raTOV 20
config.switch.rerouteDelay
Syntax rerouteDelay rerouteDelayState
Purpose This command enables or disables the rerouting delay for the switch.
NOTE: The switch can be either offline or online when this command is
executed.
This command is only applicable if the configured switch is in a
multiswitch fabric. Enabling the rerouting delay ensures that frames
are delivered in order through the fabric to their destination.
If there is a change in the fabric topology that creates a new path (for
example, a new switch is added to the fabric), frames may be routed
over this new path if its hop count is less than a previous path with a
minimum hop count. This may result in frames being delivered to a
destination out of order because frames sent over the new, shorter
path may arrive ahead of older frames still in route over the older
path.
timeoutValue Specifies the new R_A_TOV value. The units for this
value are tenths of a second. This parameter must be
an integer in the range 10–1200 (1 second to 120
seconds), and it must be greater than the E_D_TOV.
