equation must be less than the percentage value of
balance-threshold to be considered balanced.
• reassignment-threshold percentage
This parameter determines whether or not a reassignment
will be considered worthwhile.
•
measurement-interval time
This parameter accepts an positive integer value with a
suffix of "s" (seconds), "m" (minutes), or "h" (hours). A
reasonable minimum value will be based on the CPU load
presented to the system by the algorithm and the maximum
value is based on the amount of time that can pass before the
driver's internal counters overflow.
•
reassignment-limit number
This parameter specifies the maximum number of devices
that should be moved in one pass of the algorithm. The
default value is equal to or one half of the FDevs. If the path
group includes one or more multi-FDev LUNs, each FDev is
considered a separate device.
•
read-overhead µs-per-cmd µs-per-sector
This parameter is used to specify how bus connect time
overhead is estimated for read commands. The first value
specifies the number of microseconds estimated for read
command overhead, while the second is an estimate of
connect time required for each 512 bytes of data requested.
For each read operation, the sum of the command overhead
and the product of the transfer length and the per-sector
overhead is added to a counter that is used to estimate overall
bus utilization on a per-FDev and per-channel basis.
•
write-overhead µs-per-cmd µs-per-sector
This parameter is analogous to the read-overhead statement.
Sample values for these two statements are:
read-overhead 1000 120
write-overhead 1000 160
