SrbTimeout limits the SRB timeout value to 60
seconds when set to 1 or enabled. This is a
non-displayed parameter where it has to be set
manually into the registry. This option alters the
I/O timeout behavior where an I/O will be
returned in a max timeout of 60 seconds on some
long I/O timeout.
If set to 1 = enabled
If set to 0 = disabled
Values: 0, 1

Topology values can be 0 to 3.
If set to 0 (0x0) = FC-AL.

If set to 2 (0x2) = *FC-AL first, then attempt
PT-PT.
If set to 3 (0x3) = *PT-PT fabric first, then
attempt FC-AL.
* Topology fail-over requires v3.20 firmware or
higher. If firmware does not support topology
fail-over, options 0,2 and 1,3 are analogous.
