Field Description
CHS Mapping This field defines the Cylinder Head Sector (CHS) values
mapping method. CHS Mapping allows two settings: 'SCSI
Plug and Play Mapping' (Default value) and 'Alternate CHS
Mapping'. SCSI Plug and Play Mapping automatically deter
mines the most efficient and compatible mapping. Alternate
CHS Mapping utilizes an alternate method that might be
required if a device is moved betweenadapters from
different vendors.
These options have no effect after the FDISK command
partitions the disk. To change the CHS Mapping on a
partitioned disk, use the FDISK command to delete all
partitions and reboot the system to clear the memory. Be
certain that the correct disk is the target of an FDISK
command.
Spinup Delay This field indicates the number of seconds to wait between
spin-ups of devices attached to an adapter. Staggered
spin-ups balance the electrical current load on the system
during boot. The default value is 2 seconds, with choices
between 1 and 10 seconds.
Secondary The options for this field are 'Yes' or 'No' (Default). Setting
Cluster Server this field to Yes indicates that the Fusion-MPT adapter shares
devices with another adapter, and prevents the MPT
SCSI BIOS from issuing SCSI Bus resets. This is a equirement
for the Microsoft Cluster Server.
Termination This field indicates if an adapter has automatic termination
Control control. The options for this field are 'Auto' or 'Off'. 'Auto'
indicates that the adapter automatically determines to enable
or disable its termination. 'Off' indicates that termination at
the adapter is off and that other devices at the ends of the
SCSI bus must terminate the bus. If Auto is grayed out, it
means that termination is not programmable.
Restore Defaults To obtain default settings, press Enter.
