Chapter 8 Fibre Channel Commands Send comments to [email protected] fctimer fctimer To change the default Fibre Channel timers, use the fctimer command. To revert to the default values, use the no form of the command. fctimer {d_s_tov milliseconds | e_d_tov milliseconds | r_a_tov milliseconds} [vsan vsan-id] no fctimer {d_s_tov milliseconds | e_d_tov milliseconds | r_a_tov milliseconds} [vsan vsan-id] Syntax Description d_s_tov milliseconds e_d_tov milliseconds r_a_tov milliseconds vsan vsan-id Specifies the distributed services timeout value (DS_TOV). The range is 5000 to 100000 milliseconds. Specifies the error detect timeout value (ED_TOV). The range is 1000 to 100000 milliseconds, with a default of 2000. Specifies the resolution allocation timeout value (RA_TOV). The range is 5000 to 100000 milliseconds with a default of 10000. (Optional) Specifies the VSAN ID. The range is 1 to 4096. Command Default The Fibre Channel timers have the following default values: • 30 seconds for DS_TOV. • 2 seconds for ED_TOV. • 10 seconds for RA_TOV. Command Modes Configuration mode Command History Release 4.0(0)N1(1a) Modification This command was introduced. Usage Guidelines The Cisco, Brocade, and McData FC Error Detect (ED_TOV) and Resource Allocation (RA_TOV) timers default to the same values. They can be changed if needed. In accordance with the FC-SW2 standard, these values must be the same on each switch in the fabric. Use the vsan option to configure different TOV values for specific VSANs. Examples The following example shows how to change the default Fibre Channel timers: switch(config)# fctimer e_d_tov 5000 switch(config)# fctimer r_a_tov 7000 Related Commands Command show fctimer Description Displays the configured Fibre Channel timer values.
