# Description
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# Configures SCTERC timeout for all disks, setting it to 7 seconds (70
|
||
|
# deciseconds) for improved error handling. If SCTERC is unsupported,
|
||
|
# then Linux I/O timeout and the SCSI error handler (EH) timeouts are
|
||
|
# increased.
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# SCTERC (SCT Error Recovery Control) allows the disk to limit its
|
||
|
# internal recovery time, ensuring that it returns an error promptly if
|
||
|
# the operation cannot be completed, for example due to a bad sector.
|
||
|
# This prevents the SCSI layer from triggering high-level resets (e.g.,
|
||
|
# LUN, bus, or host resets) that could lead to data loss or filesystem
|
||
|
# corruption. If SCTERC is not supported, setting a long "timeout"
|
||
|
# helps prevent premature EH invocation.
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# In Linux, the "timeout" value is how long the kernel waits for an
|
||
|
# individual I/O command to complete before declaring it as failed and
|
||
|
# invoking the SCSI Error Handler (EH). Once EH takes over, its
|
||
|
# behaviour is governed by the driver implementation. The "eh_timeout"
|
||
|
# parameter defines how long the EH is allowed to try recovery
|
||
|
# operations before escalating further or offlining the device.
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# Some SMR (Shingeled Magnetic Recording) type harddisks are especially
|
||
|
# prone to trigger Linux I/O timeouts, as their internal garbage
|
||
|
# collection can take several minutes to complete. You may need to
|
||
|
# increase the fb_timeout on such devices.
|
||
|
