Adapter Configuration Appendix A In this appendix •Introduction 203 •Storage instance-specific persistent parameters 203 •Storage driver-level parameters 206 •Network driver parameters 211 Introduction Information in this appendix is optional for power users who want to modify values for adapter instance-specific persistent and driver-level configuration parameters. Rely on your operating system or storage vendor for guidance. Storage driver parameters can be modified for HBA, CNA, and Fabric Adapter CNA or HBA port operation. Network driver parameters can be modified only for CNA or Fabric Adapter CNA port operation. Storage instance-specific persistent parameters Instance-specific persistent configuration parameters for storage drivers with valid value ranges are listed in Table 33. You can change these values using the BCU commands provided in the table. These parameters are stored in the following locations on your system: • Linux and VMware - /etc/bfa.conf • Solaris - /kernel/drv/bfa.conf • Windows - Windows registry, under the following registry hives: For the HBA FC driver, Windows registry is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\bfad\Parameters\Device For the CNA FCoE driver, Windows registry is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\bfadfcoe\Parameters\Device Values for these parameters should not be changed in the repository directly; instead use the corresponding BCU commands listed in Table 33.

Introduction
Information in this appendix is optional for power users who want to modify values for adapter
instance-specific persistent and driver-level configuration parameters. Rely on your operating
system or storage vendor for guidance. Storage driver parameters can be modified for HBA, CNA,
and Fabric Adapter CNA or HBA port operation. Network driver parameters can be modified only for
CNA or Fabric Adapter CNA port operation.
Storage instance-specific persistent parameters
Instance-specific persistent configuration parameters for storage drivers with valid value ranges
are listed in
Table 33
. You can change these values using the BCU commands provided in the table.
These parameters are stored in the following locations on your system:
•
Linux and VMware - /etc/bfa.conf
•
Solaris - /kernel/drv/bfa.conf
•
Windows - Windows registry, under the following registry hives:
For the HBA FC driver, Windows registry is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\bfad\Parameters\Device
For the CNA FCoE driver, Windows registry is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\bfadfcoe\Parameters\Device
Values for these parameters should not be changed in the repository directly; instead use the
corresponding BCU commands listed in
Table 33
.
