FAL_RETRY_TARGET. You can set up to five system error codes to trigger the retry function by specifying
the environment variable (FAL_RETRY_TARGET). If you set six or more error codes, Data Exchange
ignores entries after the fifth entry.

Table 13

on page 41 shows the relationship between the environment variable (FAL_RETRY_TARGET)

and system error code.

CAUTION:

OS error codes returned in case of a reservation conflict may vary depending on the host environment,
such as the OS or HBA driver, timing of the conflict, and so on. You should do adequate testing before
determining any non-default error codes as triggers for the retry function. In case of a system error
other than the default value, contact HP technical support.
