The maximum number of concurrent I/Os that will be issued to a single target

Full returns back to the OS, which can cause Event 11 and Event 15 to appear

The default is 64 for Fibre Channel and 63 for SCSI because that is what most
drives currently shipping can support, and it is large enough to provide good
performance for random I/O.
Any value above 254 will be forced to 20 by StorPort, so the maximum value of

Setting this parameter to anything larger than the maximum target queue depth
currently in-use by target devices will cause Queue Full status returns.
Note that the maximum target queue depth in-use by target devices is a very
nebulous number, which changes dynamically over time based upon the present

device.
