DESCRIPTION

14       iprinit  is used to setup IBM Power RAID adapters and devices for opti‐
15       mal performance. It will enable U320 scsi speeds if  it  is  determined
16       the  disk  enclosure  supports  it.  It will also enable tagged command
17       queuing.   Any  scsi  bus  attributes,  such  as  bus  width,  or  disk
18       attributes, such as queue depth, that have been setup by iprconfig will
19       be loaded as well.  It is desired that  this  be  called  in  the  boot
20       process, using the init.d script provided.

33       --use-polling
34              Do not use netlink/uevent  notification,  but  rather  poll  for
35              adapter and device configuration changes.
36
37       --use-uevents
38              Use  netlink/uevent notification rather than polling for adapter
39              and device configuration changes. If not specified, polling will
40              be  used  until  the  first  uevent  notification  appears, then
41              netlink will be used.
