RebuildPriority, ExpandPriority

This option has three possible values: Low, Medium, and High.

SSPState

There are two settings for this option: Enable and Disable. If you do not specify a value for the SSP State,

the existing setting remains unchanged.

NOTE:

The SSPState option is valid only for controllers that enable SSP on a controller basis,

such as the MSA1000 or the Smart Array Cluster Storage controllers. RA4x00 controllers
support SSP that is enabled on a logical drive basis, and use the LogicalDriveSSPState option
("

LogicalDriveSSPState

" on page

45

) instead.

If you enable SSP, you must also specify an adapter for one or more logical drives by using the
SSPAdaptersWithAccess option ("

SSPAdaptersWithAccess

" on page

47

). Otherwise, SSP is automatically

disabled.

SurfaceScanDelay

Enter a number between 1 and 30 to specify the duration of the surface scan delay in seconds.

Video performance options

To optimize the controller performance for video, set values for the following options as indicated:

DPOEnable = No
ElevatorSortEnable = Yes
IRPEnable = No

In addition:

Set the MNPDelay to any integer value from 1 to 60 (units are minutes). If you want to disable this

option, set a value of zero instead.

Set the QueueDepth to any integer value from 2 to 32, or to Auto.

Array (on page

Array

Enter a letter or pair of letters to identify the array that is to be created or reconfigured, and observe these

additional limitations:

In Configure mode, ACU creates a new array. The value that you specify for the array option must

be the next available letter or pair of letters in the sequence, according to the number of existing
arrays on the controller. AA follows Z, and BA follows AZ.
