Setting Driver Parameters for a Host
To change the driver parameters for HBAs installed in a host:
1. Do one of the following:
• From the menu bar, click View, then click Sort by Host Name.
• From the toolbar, click the Sort by Host Name button: .
2. In the discovery-tree, click the host whose HBA driver parameters you wish to change.
3. Select the Driver Parameters tab. If there are HBAs with different driver types installed, the
Installed Driver Types menu shows a list of all driver types and driver versions that are installed.
Select the driver whose parameters you wish to change. This menu does not appear if all the
HBAs are using the same driver.
4. In the Driver Parameters tab, click the parameter that you want to change. A description of the
parameter appears on the right side of the dialog box.

5. Enter a new value in the Value field. You must enter values in decimal or hexadecimal format,
depending on how the current value is presented. If the value is in hexadecimal format, it is
prefaced by "0x" (for example 0x2d).
6. If you want the change to be temporary (causing the parameter to revert to its last permanent
setting when the system is rebooted), check the Make changes temporary box. This option is
available only for dynamic parameters.
7. If you are making changes to multiple parameters, and you want all the changes to be
temporary, check the Make all changes temporary box. Only dynamic parameters can be
made temporary.
8. Click Apply.
