Domain
Pressing <Enter>, while Domain is selected, displays:
Domain
1
The domain number uniquely identifies the Switch in a Fabric. This Switch ID
is normally automatically assigned by the Switch and may be any value
between 0 and 31. You may also assign the initial domain number manually.
The Switch with the lowest initial domain will become the master Switch and
control the configuration.
BB_credit
Pressing <Enter>, while BB_credit is selected, displays:
BB_credit
16
The number represents the number of buffers, from 1 to 16, available to the
host. The default for G_Port cards is 16. The BB_credit for FL_Port cards is 0.
For a complete description of buffer-to-buffer credit, refer to the industry
specification Fibre Channel Physical and Signalling Interface (FC-PH).
R_A_TOV
Pressing <Enter>, while R_A_TOV is selected, displays:
R_A_TOV
10000
Resource Allocation Time Out Value (R_A_TOV) is adjustable in 1-second
increments using front panel controls, but its value is displayed in
milliseconds. This variable works with the variable E_D_TOV to determine
the Switch’s actions when presented with an error condition. Allocated circuit
resources with detected errors are not released until the time value has expired.
If the condition is resolved prior to the timing out, the internal time out clock
resets and waits for the next error condition. The range is 1 to 120 seconds.
NOTE: The set value must be larger than the set value for the Error Detect Time Out Value
