ExtTransferSize

ExtTransferSize is an initialization-time
parameter that affects the maximum SGL that the
driver can handle, which determines the
maximum I/O size that a port will support.
If set to 0 = the maximum default transfer size is
512KB for all controller models.
If set to 1= the maximum transfer size is 1MB.
If set to 2 = the maximum transfer size is 2MB.
If set to 3 = the maximum transfer size is 4MB.
Value: 0–3
Default = 0 (disabled)

LightPulse adapters
only including
LPe15000 and
LPe16000 HBAs.

FrameSizeMSB=n

FrameSizeMSB controls the upper byte of receive
FrameSize if issued in PLOGI. This allows the
FrameSize to be constrained on 256-byte
increments from 256 (1) to 2048 (8).
Value: 0–8
Default = 0

Reset

InitTimeout=n

Determines the number of time-out seconds
during driver initialization for the link to come
up. If the link fails to come up by InitTimeout,
driver initialization exits but is still successful. If
the link comes up before InitTimeout, the driver
sets double the amount for discovery to
complete.
Value: 5–30 seconds or 0x5–0x1E (hex)
Default = 15 seconds (0xF)

Reboot

LimTransferSize

Limits maximum transfer size when non-zero to
selectable values.
Values:
0 = Port Default
1 = 64Kb
2 = 128 Kb
3 = 256Kb
