NOTE: Some older versions of Fast!UTIL may display additional settings that are
no longer required.
■
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.
■
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. If you do
not need multiple LUN support, set the number of LUNs to 0. The default is 8.
■
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.
■
Port Down Retry Count. This setting specifies the number of seconds the
software retries a command to a port returning port down status. The default
is 30 seconds.
