Guide
Port Down Retry Count—This setting specifies the number of times the
software retries a command to a port returning port down status. The default is
8 retries.
Drivers Load RISC Code—When this setting is Enabled, the HBA uses the
RISC firmware that is embedded in the software driver. When this setting is
Disabled, the software driver loads the RISC firmware that is stored in the
HBA BIOS. The default is Enabled.
— The driver being loaded must support this setting. If the driver does not
support this setting, the result is the same as Disabled regardless of the
setting. Leaving this option enabled guaranties a certified combination of
software driver and RISC firmware.
Enable Database Updates—When enabled, this setting allows the software
to save the loop configuration information in flash memory when the system
powers down. The default is No.
Disable Database Load—When enabled, the device database is read from
the Registry during driver initialization. When disabled, the device database is
created dynamically during driver initialization. The default is No.
IOCB Allocation—This setting specifies the maximum number of buffers
from the firmware's buffer pool that are allocated to any one port. The default
is 256 buffers.
Extended Error Logging—This setting provides additional error and debug
information to the operating system. When Enabled, events are logged into
the Windows NT/Windows 2000 Event Viewer. The default is Disabled.
