In general, ZFS doesn't manage device timeouts.  The lower
layer drivers do.  The timeout management depends on which OS,
OS version, and HBA you use.  A fairly extreme example may be
Solaris using parallel SCSI and the sd driver, which uses a default
timeout of 60 seconds and 5 retries.  In the more recent Solaris NV
builds, FMA has been enhanced with an io-retire module which
can make better decisions on whether the device is behaving well.
