Adaptec CI/O Management Software User's Guide
I/O Manager Settings
The I/O Manager is the portion of the CI/O Management Software
which runs on the target system. The I/O Manager provides the
run-time intelligence to detect device failures, locate schedules to be
run, and send event notifications to clients.
The behavior of the I/O Manager may be changed by entries in the
iomgr.ini file.
[ASPIMODEL] DisableASPI = [Yes | No]
I/O Manager options for management of Adaptec SCSI host
adapters are configured by certain entries in the standard I/O
Manager initialization file (iomgr.ini). The iomgr.ini file is located in
the directory where you installed the Adaptec CI/O Management
Software. For example, a section headed [ARRAYOPERATIONS]
and the variables under each section are described below.
[ASPIMODEL] DisableASPI = [Yes | No]
This option disables all SCSI Manager functions. This option can be
used for problem isolation in I/O Manager systems that support
multiple product families (SCSI, RAID).
LoadSavedConfiguration= [Yes| No]
This option determines whether the ASPI Manager retains
configuration information across I/O Manager invocations. The
default value for backward compatibility is Yes. When set to Yes, the
ASPI Manager will load the last known configuration each time the
I/O Manager starts. When set to No, the ASPI Manager will
rediscover all host adapters and devices.
DiscoveryInterval = n
This option configures the frequency (in seconds) that the Discovery
phase is run. The default value is 1800 (30 minutes). System design
prevents a Poll phase or a Statistics phase from being active when a
Discovery phase is activated.
PollInterval = n
This option configures the frequency (in seconds) that the Poll phase
is run. The default value is 180 (3 minutes). If a Poll phase is
