Q
❑ Verbose Autoconnect Debug. When this check box is selected, the
QLA40xx firmware generates a console trace of all PDUs sent and received
by the QLA40xx before an Initialize Firmware command (0060h) is
received.
❑ MaxBurstSize. This column indicates the maximum length for data
sequences the QLA40xx uses when negotiating with a device during login
phase. This parameter indicates how many units (512 bytes/unit) of data
the QLA40xx can send/receive. Valid values are in the range 0 to 32767
units (512 to 16MB–1 bytes); a value of 0 indicates unlimited data units.
❑ FirstBurstSize. This column indicates the maximum length for unsolicited
data the QLA40xx uses when negotiating with a device during the login
phase. This parameter indicates how many units (512 bytes/unit) of
unsolicited data the QLA40xx can send/receive. Valid values are in the
range 0 to 32767 units (512 to 16MB–1 bytes); a value of 0 indicates
unlimited data units.
❑ Additional Firmware Options. This field is used for debug and test
purposes. For more information, see the QLogic SANblade 4000 Series
Firmware Interface Specification (IS0150301-00).
❑ Jumbo Packets Enable. When this check box is selected, jumbo packets
are enabled on an Ethernet network. This feature is not currently
supported.
❑ Autoconnect. When this check box is selected, the QLA40xx will not
attempt to autoconnect to the configured target devices at boot time.
Instead, the host must issue Set Device Database Entry commands
(0063h) to establish connections to targets.
❑ MaxOutstanding R2T. This column indicates the maximum number of
outstanding R2Ts the QLA40xx uses when negotiating with a device during
the login phase. This parameter indicates how many R2Ts can be
outstanding on a SCSI task. Valid values are in the range 1–65535.
❑ Enable Logout on iSCSI Discovery Session. When this check box is
selected, the QLA40xx HBA initiates an iSCSI logout on a discovery
session when discovery is complete (before closing the connection). When
this check box is cleared, the QLA40xx HBA closes the TCP connection
when discovery is complete. This parameter is the same as Logout on
iSCSI Discovery Session in the target parameters (see section 7.8.3).
❑ Connection Keep Alive Timeout. This column indicates the time interval
(in seconds) between connection keep-alive pings. When a connection is
idle for the connection keep-alive timeout interval, the QLA40xx HBA sends
an NOP ping to the other device that is part of the connection. When the
