Setting The Repeat Interval For Error Messages - Adaptec AHA-3980 User Manual

4
If you choose Broadcast only to specified locations, the
Administrator utility creates a file named arubcast.lst in the
sys:system directory. A message noting this appears onscreen.
Press any key to clear the message, then edit the arubcast.lst
file to enter the workstations where messages will appear. Each
line in the file can have one name, which must be typed exactly
as it appears in the server connection list. To specify connec-
tions named Ron, Gary, Eileen, Jim, Margaret, and Gerhard, for
example, the file appears as
Ron
Gary
Eileen
Jim
Margaret
Gerhard
The number of lines in the arubcast.lst file is unlimited.
Note:
The locations you select (everyone, no one, or speci-
fied locations) apply to all arrays, even if you selected a spe-
cific array from the System Menu.

Setting the Repeat Interval for Error Messages

Error messages repeat onscreen every 15 minutes by default. Several
beeps call your attention to the message. To change the interval at
which the messages repeat, follow these steps:
1
From the System Menu or the Main Menu, select Change
Array Configuration.
2
Select Change Message Repeat Cycle. A prompt appears, indi-
cating the current repeat interval and prompting you to enter
the new one.
3
Type the new repeat interval (in minutes) and press Enter. To
specify no repeats, enter 0.
This changes the interval for all error messages on all arrays, even if
you selected a specific array from the System Menu. You cannot select
different intervals for different error messages or for different arrays.
