| Description | This object will provide a cumulative count
(since last system boot up or initialization) of
the number of erase retries that were done in the chip.
Typically, a maximum of 2000 retries are done in a
single erase zone (which may be a full chip or a
portion, depending on the chip technology) before
flagging an erase error.
A management station is expected to get this object
for each chip in a partition after an erase failure
in that partition. To keep a track of retries for
a given erase operation, the management station would
have to retrieve the values for the concerned chips
before and after any erase operation.
Note that erase may be done through an independent
command, or through a copy-to-flash command. |
