AutoPilot Configuration File

For example:
[STORPORT.QFES]
qfe = "QFE 83896", "\system32\drivers\storport.sys",
"5.2.1390.176","Win2008"
Setting Up FC Driver Parameters [STORPORT.PARAMS]
This section specifies driver parameters. Parameters are read exactly as they are entered
and are written to the registry. To change driver parameters, modify this section of the
AutoPilot configuration file. Locate the [STORPORT.PARAMS] section in the AutoPilot
configuration file. This section follows Optional Configuration File Changes. Under the
[STORPORT.PARAMS] heading, list the driver parameters and new values for the
driver to use.
For example:
Driver Parameter = "LinkTimeout = 45"
See Table 3-1, Storport Miniport Driver Parameters, on page 580 for a listing of driver
parameters, defaults and valid values.
Setting Up System Parameters [SYSTEM.PARAMS]
To change the system parameters, create a [SYSTEM.PARAMS] section in the
APInstall.cfg file. Create this section under the Optional Configuration File Changes
heading in the [AUTOPILOT.CONFIG] section.
For example, you can adjust the operating system’s global disk timeout. The timeout is
stored in the registry under the key HKML\CurrentControlSet\Services\disk and is
specified with the following string:
TimeOutValue = 0x3C (where the number is the timeout value in
seconds.)
path and file
name
This string identifies the file to be checked and its location relative
to the Windows home folder. In most cases, the file to check is the
Microsoft Storport driver, for example,
“\system32\drivers\storport.sys”. This string is also used in
dialogs and log file messages.
file version
This is the minimum version that the file to be checked must have
for the QFE to be considered installed. It is specified as a text
string using the same format as is used when displaying the files
property sheet. For example, “5.2.1390.176”.
applicable OS
This is used to determine if the QFE applies to the operating
system platform present. The acceptable value is “Win2008”.
