[1] These values are subject to change.
 
 
Setting these retry counts to a value below the default setting could result in an increased unrecovered 
error rate which may exceed the value given in this product manual. A setting of zero (0) will result in the 
drive not performing error recovery.
 
 
For example, suppose the Read/Write Recovery page has the RC bit set to 0, read retry count set to 4, 
and the recovery time limit field (Mode Sense page 01, bytes 10 and 11) set to FF FF hex (maximum). A 
four LBA Read command is allowed to take up to 271.32
 
msec recovery time for each of the four LBAs in 
the command. If the recovery time limit is set to 00 C8 hex (200 msec decimal) a four LBA read command 
is allowed to take up to 200 msec for all error recovery within that command. The use of the Recovery 
Time Limit field allows finer granularity on control of the time spent in error recovery. The recovery time 
limit only starts counting when the drive is executing error recovery and it restarts on each command. 
Therefore, each command’s total recovery time is subject to the recovery time limit. Note: A recovery time 
limit of 0 will use the drive’s default value of FF FF. Minimum recovery time limit is achieved by setting the 
Recovery Time Limit field to 00 01.

FC-AL system errors
Information on the reporting of operational errors or faults across the interface is given in the Fibre Channel 
Interface Manual
. The FCP Response returns information to the host about numerous kinds of errors or faults. 
The Receive Diagnostic Results reports the results of diagnostic operations performed by the drive.
Status returned by the drive to the initiator is described in the Fibre Channel Interface Manual. Status reporting 
plays a role in systems error management and its use in that respect is described in sections where the various 
commands are discussed.
