IO TOV (10-240): Timeout value for the I/O to the external LU. The value can be 10 to 240 (in
second). The default value is 15.

QDepth (8-128): Number of Read/Write commands that can be issued (queued) to the external
LU at one time. The value can be from 8 to 128. The default value is 8.

Path Blockade Watch (10-180): Time period beginning when the connection of all paths to the
external LU is down and ending when the external LU is blocked. Commands from the host are
accepted until the time set for this parameter has passed. After the time has passed, the path status
becomes Blockade. The value can be from 10 to 180 (seconds). The default value is 180.

CAUTION:

If there is no problem with the default setting, use the default setting.

CAUTION:

For the external LU used for typical I/O, set

IO TOV to 15 seconds.

CAUTION:

To change the setting, match the value to the recommended value for the external array.
