pvtimeout

Hi everybody!

Can anybody tell me how I can change the pvtimeout pemanently for all disks
to another setting other than default. The dafault is 30000mS and I need to set it to
180000 mS. I know how to do it with pvchange, but I want to set it as system-default.
Is there a kernel-parameter, or something like that?

Thanks for your help

Regards,

Stefano

Hi Stefano,

I believe that pvchange is all that you have to do. The timeout value is held on the disk so having pvchange'd all the disks then the job is done.

Re: pvtimeout

Hi,

i agree with John, there is no kernel parameter for pv timeout value.
You have to use pvchange for all your disks.
