Enables or disables intermittent error monitoring.

Disabled

Intermittent error monitoring can be enabled only when automatic failback is set

to

on

.

When you use automatic failback, we recommend that you set intermittent error

monitoring to

on

to prevent an intermittent error from reducing I/O performance.

If

on

is specified, be sure to also specify the intermittent error monitoring interval

and the number of times that the error is to occur. The system assumes that an

intermittent error is occurring if the specified number of times that the error is to

occur is reached during the monitoring interval. A path that is assumed to have an

intermittent error is excluded from automatic failbacks. Intermittent error

monitoring is performed on each path. Intermittent error monitoring starts when

a path is recovered from an error by performing an automatic failback.
If you omit the intermittent error monitoring interval or the number of times that

the error is to occur, each setting is specified as follows:

When the intermittent error monitoring interval or the number of times that

the error is to occur has not been specified before:
The intermittent error monitoring interval is set to 210 minutes, and the

number of times that the error is to occur is set to 3.

When the intermittent error monitoring interval or the number of times that

the error is to occur has been specified before:
The values specified from the last time are used.

When a value of 2 or more is specified for the number of times, the following

condition must be satisfied:

error-monitoring-interval

>=

checking-interval-for-automatic-failback

x

number-of-times-error-is-to-occur-during-intermittent-error-monitoring


If this condition is not satisfied, the KAPL01080-W message will be output and

an error will occur. If this happens, change any of the following settings: the

checking interval for automatic failback, intermittent error monitoring interval, or

the number of times that the error is to occur.
When you set the number of times that the error is to occur to

1

, the above

condition does not need to be satisfied.
