Setting fabric timers
The fabric operation involves the following timers:
• Distributed service timeout period.
• Error detection timeout period.
• Resource allocation timeout period.
For more information about these timers, see FC-related protocols and standards.
You can set fabric timers in one of the following views:
• System view—The setting takes effect on all VSANs.
• VSAN view—The setting takes effect only on the VSAN.
If you set a fabric timer in both system view and VSAN view, the setting in VSAN view applies to the
VSAN.
