Abstract
A method and system to increase system availability during a fault of a non-safety target is disclosed. A fault signal is received indicative of a response to a request from an initiator not being received from one of a safety target and non-safety target within a response time. Based on the response not being received from the non-safety target, only the non-safety target is reset to increase the system availability rather than also resetting safety targets. Because a target did not respond to the request, a dummy responder further sends to the initiator a response to the request to prevent the initiator from entering into a hang state.
