EMC Fibre Channel with QLogic Host Bus Adapters in the Solaris Environment
Installing and Configuring the HBA and Driver
hba0-link-down-error — Disables all link_down time out values. The
sd driver will not be notified of any error conditions if the QLogic
driver detects a link_down condition. If the EMC storage array goes
off line or the link with the host is broken for any reason, the QLogic
driver holds all pending I/Os indefinitely until the link is restored or
the storage array rejoins the loop. In a PowerPath
®
or VERITAS DMP
environment, this variable should be enabled (1) so the PowerPath or
VERITAS DMP driver will be notified of any error conditions.
hba0-link-down-timeout — Time the driver waits for a Fibre
Channel loop to come up before reporting the failure.
hba0-persistent-binding-configuration:
0 = Report to OS discovery of both bound and non-bound devices
1 = Report to OS discovery of bound devices only
hba0-persistent-binding-by port ID — Persistent binding by port ID.
hba0-fast-error-reporting — Fast error reporting to Solaris.
hba0-extended-logging — Disable/Enable logging of driver detected
events occurring either in the driver or Fibre Channel bus.
hba0-queue-full-retry-count — Number of times to retry a SCSI
queue full error.
hba0-queue-full-retry-delay — Time to wait after a SCSI
queue full
error before starting any new I/O commands.
hba0-security-protocols — Disable/Enable Fibre Channel security
protocol DH-CHAP.
hba0-FDMI-support — Disable/Enable the Fabric-Device
Management Interface support.
hba0-VDP-support — Target/LUN VDP data for failover
configuration support.
