Changing system configuration parameters 3 FIGURE 21 Configure tab, Fabric subtab 5. Make the fabric parameter configuration changes. 6. Click Apply. 7. Enable the switch as described in "Enabling and disabling a switch" on page 34. Fabric settings Configure the following fabric settings on the Fabric subtab of the Configure tab: BB Credit R_A_TOV E_D_TOV Datafield size Switch PID Format Sequence Level Switching The buffer-to-buffer credit is the number of buffers available to attached devices for frame receipt. The default BB Credit is 16. The range is 1-27. Resource allocation timeout value (in milliseconds). This variable works with the E_D_TOV to determine switch actions when presented with an error condition. The default is 10000. The possible range is (2*E_D_TOV) -120000. Values must be multiples of 1000. Error detect timeout value (in milliseconds). This timer is used to flag a potential error condition when an expected response is not received within the set time. The valid range is 1000 - (R_A_TOV/2) The largest possible data field size (in bytes). The valid range is 256-2112. Select a switch PID format from one of the following: • Format 1 (0-base, 256 encoding) • Format 2 (16-base, 256 encoding) Select this box to enable frames of the same sequence from a particular group to be transmitted together. When this option is not selected, frames are transmitted interleaved among multiple sequences. Under normal circumstances, sequence-level switching should be disabled for better performance. However, some host adapters have issues when receiving interleaved frames among multiple sequences. Web Tools Administrator's Guide 37 53-1000606-01
