Use the minimum value of the driver if the actual result is lower.
•
To achieve maximum system performance, this value can be changed according to the server load
•
and the peak operating times.
•
The number of simultaneous command executions per CA port for the ETERNUS DX/AF is limited to
1024. This value is used by multiple servers that share the CA port. A maximum of 1024 commands
can be executed per CA port.

For VIOS/VIOC Configuration
Log in to VIOS with the padmin user, use the "oem_setup_env" command to change the padmin user to the
root user, and then use the "smit" command or another command to set the driver parameters.
●
For a virtual SCSI
Set the parameter as shown in the following table.

*1: Recommended value = 1024 ¸ (number of Fibre Channel ports that are connected to a single CA port)
(Round the result down)
Use the minimum value of the driver if the actual result is lower.
