> Is it common practice to issue periodic resets on a shared bus?

No.  However, Microsoft clustering software uses target resets
to break reservations, which might be as disruptive.  PAM won't be
able to tell if a target reset is sent to various targets.

> how far the timer has expired.  Then PAM could set the value short
> enough to avoid the problem.
