RIO operation mode: This setting specifies the reduced interrupt operation (RIO) mode, if
supported by the software device driver. When the expansion card is in RIO mode, you can post
multiple command completions in a single interrupt (see Table 7 on page 13).
Interrupt delay timer: This setting contains the value (in 100-microsecond increments) used by a
timer to set the wait time between accessing a set of handles and generating an interrupt using direct
memory access (DMA).
Scan Fibre Channel devices
Use this option to scan and list all the connected devices. Information about each device is listed, for
example, vendor name, product name, and revision. This information is useful when you are
configuring the Fibre Channel Expansion Card and attached devices.
Fibre Channel disk utility
The Fibre Channel disk utility is not supported in the SBCE Fibre Channel Options.
Use this option to scan the Fibre Channel loop bus and list all the connected devices by loop ID. You
can select a disk device and perform a low-level format or verify the disk media or data.
Attention: Performing a low-level format removes all data on the disk.
Loopback data test
This option is not available with your SBCE configuration.
