HP Workstation xw6000 Adaptec SCSI RAID 2120S: Software Reference Guide - Page 186

Adaptec SCSI RAID Software Reference Guide Command And Switch Availability This command is supported on the following operating systems: ■ Windows NT ■ Windows 2000 (basic disk only) ■ Windows XP (basic disk only) ■ NetWare Notes The controller automatically performs a rescan of the SCSI channel before the I/O is resumed. Using this command when there is a pagefile on an array could cause unexpected behavior. Use of the controller pause_io command is not permitted while an array task is running on the controller. (Use the task list command to display a list of currently running array tasks.) Syntax controller pause_io [{integer}] Parameters {integer} Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, to cause the controller to wait before automatically resuming I/O. The parameter defaults to the maximum value of 150 seconds. This is necessary because the controller resume_io command may not be able to access the controller under some circumstances. Examples The following example pauses all I/O activity on the currently opened controller for 100 seconds: AAC0> controller pause_io 100 Executing: controller pause_io 100 6-14
