receive timeout
This command sets the receive timeout individually for each
group and displays a message for each loaded frame type.
retry count
This command sets the number of retries that the software
attempts when a probe packet fails to appear at the receive
end. After the retries, the software puts the board in Wait
mode. If no argument is specified or the specified argument
is invalid, the current value is displayed. Otherwise, the new
value is displayed.
send timeout
This command sets the timeout value, in seconds, that
the software waits before retransmitting a probe packet
when a send request to the link support layer (LSL) is not
acknowledged. A message is displayed for each loaded
frame type.
Syntax
lbrsl probe interval seconds
where seconds is the interval in seconds.
Example
lbrsl set probe interval 1
Default 1 second
If the delay is longer than 1 second, NIC or link failures
are not recognized as quickly.
Syntax
lbrsl receive timeout pri_slot
seconds
where:
pri_slot is the PCI slot number of the primary NIC.
seconds is the time in seconds
Example
lbrsl receive timeout 10001 1
Default 1 second
Syntax
lbrsl retry count number_of_retries
where:
number_of_retries is any positive integer
Example
lbrsl retry count 2
Default 5
