After adjusting the tunable kernel driver parameters, you must reconfigure the VXFEN module for the parameter changes to take effect.
The following example procedure changes the value of the vxfen_min_delay parameter.
To configure the VxFEN parameters and reconfigure the VxFEN module
# /etc/methods/vxfenext -status
To start the driver:
# /etc/init.d/vxfen.rc start
For example:
# lsattr -El vxfen
vxfen_deblog_sz 65536 N/A True vxfen_max_delay 3 N/A True vxfen_min_delay 1 N/A True vxfen_vxfnd_tmt 60 N/A True
The current value of the vxfen_min_delay parameter is 1 (the default).
# chdev -l vxfen -P -a vxfen_min_delay=30
# /etc/methods/vxfenext -stop
# /etc/methods/vxfenext -start
