18 July 2001 T10/1236-D Revision 20The BUSY TIMEOUT PERIOD field specifies the maximum time, in 100 milliseconds increments, that the initiator allowsfor the target to remain busy for unanticipated conditions that are not a routine part of commands from the initiator.This value may be rounded down as defined in 5.3. A 0000h value in this field is undefined by this standard. AnFFFFh value in this field is defined as an unlimited period.The EXTENDED SELF-TEST COMPLETION TIME field contains advisory data that an application client may use todetermine the time in seconds that the device server requires to complete an extended self-test when the deviceserver is not interrupted by subsequent commands and no errors occur during execution of the self-test. The applicationclient should expect this time to increase significantly if other commands are sent to the logical unit while aself-test is in progress or if errors occur during execution of the self-test. Device servers supporting SELF-TESTCODE field values other than 000b for the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command (see 7.23), shall support the EXTENDEDSELF-TEST COMPLETION TIME field.8.3.7 Disconnect-reconnect pageThe disconnect-reconnect page (see table 159) provides the application client the means to tune the performanceof the service delivery subsystem. The name for this mode page, disconnect-reconnect, comes from the <strong>SCSI</strong>parallel bus. A <strong>SCSI</strong> device based on any of the protocols may use appropriate parameters in thedisconnect-reconnect mode page. The parameters appropriate to each protocol and their interpretation for thatprotocol may be specified in the individual protocol documents.Table 159 — Disconnect-reconnect pageBitByte7 6 5 4 3 2 1 00 PS Reserved PAGE CODE (02h)1 PAGE LENGTH (0Eh)2 BUFFER FULL RATIO3 BUFFER EMPTY RATIO4 (MSB)BUS INACTIVITY LIMIT5 (LSB)6 (MSB)DISCONNECT TIME LIMIT7 (LSB)8 (MSB)CONNECT TIME LIMIT9 (LSB)10 (MSB)MAXIMUM BURST SIZE11 (LSB)12 EMDP FAIR ARBITRATION DIMM DTDC13 Reserved14 (MSB)FIRST BURST SIZE15 (LSB)The device server communicates the parameter values in this mode page to the service delivery subsystem.Similarly the application client may also communicate parameter values to the service delivery subsystem. Thiscommunication is internal to the initiator or target device and is outside the scope of <strong>SCSI</strong>.dpANS <strong>SCSI</strong> <strong>Primary</strong> <strong>Commands</strong> - 2 (SPC-2) 199
