Command And Switch Availability

This command is supported on the following operating systems:
■
Windows NT
■
Windows 2000 (basic disk only)
■ Windows XP (basic disk only)
■
NetWare

Notes

The controller automatically performs a rescan of the SCSI channel
before the I/O is resumed.
Using this command when there is a pagefile on an array could
cause unexpected behavior.
Use of the controller pause_io command is not permitted
while an array task is running on the controller. (Use the task
list command to display a list of currently running array tasks.)

Syntax

controller pause_io [{integer}]

Parameters

{integer}
Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, to cause the controller
to wait before automatically resuming I/O.
The parameter defaults to the maximum value of 150 seconds.
This is necessary because the controller resume_io
command may not be able to access the controller under some
circumstances.

Examples

The following example pauses all I/O activity on the currently
opened controller for 100 seconds:
AAC0> controller pause_io 100
Executing: controller pause_io 100
6-14
