E_D_Tov; Switch Priority - HP Surestore 64 - Director Switch Installation Manual

Note:
multi-switch fabric. If the value is not the same on all units, the fabric segments. Also,
the value for R_A_TOV must be greater than the value configured for E_D_TOV.

E_D_TOV

Adjust the E_D_TOV in tenth-of-a-second increments. An error condition occurs
when an expected response is not received within the time limit set by this value.
The default value is 20 tenths (2 seconds). Set a value between 2 tenths through
600 tenths (.2 through 60 seconds).
Note:
fabric. If the value is not the same, the fabric segments.

Switch Priority

Setting this value determines the principal director for the multi-switch fabric.
Choose Principal (highest priority), Default, or Never Principal (lowest
priority) from the Switch Priority drop-down list.
Setting these priority values determines the principal director selected for the
multi-switch fabric. For example, if you have three directors in the fabric and set
one as Principal, one as Default, and one as Never Principal, the unit set to
Principal becomes the principal director in the fabric.
If all directors are set to Principal or Default, the director with the highest
priority and the lowest WWN becomes the principal director. The following are
some examples of principal director selection when directors have these settings:
