SANREFRESHTIME

The SANREFRESHTIME option specifies the amount of time that elapses before the cached SAN discovery information is refreshed. The SANREFRESHTIME option has a default value of 0, which means that there is no SAN discovery cache. The information is obtained directly from the host bus adapter (HBA) every time the server performs a SAN discovery operation.

Note: The QUERY SAN server command always receives SAN information at the time that the command is issued and ignores any value specified for SANREFRESHTIME.
