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 failbacks, the 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.
When you change the error monitor interval while intermittent error

monitoring is running, the new settings will take effect immediately. When

the checking interval is shortened and the checking interval time after the

change has already elapsed during the current checking interval, the path

status check will start over.
This setting remains stored in the system, even if you disable the function by

changing the setting of automatic failbacks to

off

. Therefore, if you

re-enable automatic failbacks and do not change the interval, path status

checks will be executed at the interval already stored in the system.

When you upgrade from HDLM 03-00 or 03-01 to 05-00 or later:

When you upgrade to HDLM 05-00 or later from HDLM 03-00 or 03-01, and

the

-pchk

parameter was already set to

on

in the previous version, the

-afb

parameter will be set to

on

in the new version. The value of the

-intvl

parameter will be set to the same value as the previous checking interval of

the

-pchk

parameter.

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
