Configuring Switch Information 3 NOTE: If Enterprise Fabric Mode (an optional SANtegrity™ Binding feature) or Fabric Binding is enabled, then Insistent Domain ID must be enabled. 4. Select the Rerouting Delay check box to enable rerouting delay. When this check box is filled, traffic is delayed through the fabric by the specified error detect time out value (E_D_TOV). This delay ensures Fibre Channel frames are delivered to their destination in order, even if a change to the fabric topology creates a new (shorter) transmission path. This parameter is only applicable if the product is being configured in a multiswitch fabric. NOTE: If Enterprise Fabric Mode (an optional SANtegrity™ Binding feature) is enabled, then Rerouting Delay must be enabled. 5. Select the Domain RSCN check box to enable domain RSCN function. When this check box is selected, messages can be sent between end devices in a fabric to provide additional connection information to host bus adapters (HBA) and storage devices. Consult with your HBA and storage device vendor to determine if enabling domain RSCNs will cause problems with your HBA or storage products. NOTE: If Enterprise Fabric Mode (an optional SANtegrity Binding feature) is enabled, then Domain RSCN must be enabled. 6. Select the Suppress RSCN on Zone Set Activations check box to suppress sending RSCNs during zone set activations. When this check box is filled, RSCN messages are prohibited from being sent to ports on the switch following any change to the fabric's active zone set. Consult with your HBA and storage device vendor to determine if enabling this parameter will cause problems with your HBA or storage products. 7. Select the Limited Fabric RSCN check box to prevent sending fabric RSCNs in case of an Initial Program Load (IPL). When enabled, fabric RSCNs are suppressed after an IPL. 8. Select the Zone FlexPars: Isolate Fabric RSCNs on zone activation changes check box to suppress sending fabric-format RSCNs to devices in zones not impacted by the RSCN. As fabrics grow larger, numerous RSCNs from zoning changes can create 3-12 EFCM Basic User Manual
