Using the Load Command Line Options
You can specify several command line options when the driver is
loaded. The available options are described in the tables below. The
first table describes the command line options for the
aic7870.dsk
driver for Ultra SCSI and earlier products. The second table
describes command line options for the
aic78u2.ham driver for
Ultra2 SCSI products.
Table of aic7870.dsk Command Line Options:

auto_bus_fairness= on, off on Enables/disables auto
SCSI bus fairness

auto_flush_diskreq= on, off on Enables/disables auto

dev_enable= 00-FFFF FFFF Allows you to enable the
driver's registration of
SCSI devices on a per

targets are scanned. A bit
value of 0 causes the target
not to register under the
operating system. These
devices are still accessible
via ASPI. This enable bit
mask is entered in hex (see
Bit Mask Options
on
page 4-12).
