Once hardware connectivity between the XP disk arrays is established, URz operations can be
performed from the remote console PC and/or from the z/OS system software for maximum
usability.
The HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console software displays detailed URz information and
allows you to configure and perform URz operations. XP disk array XP Remote Web Console
software communicates with the SVP of XP disk array subsystem via defined TCP/IP connections.
In the event of a system failure or disaster at the primary site, XP disk array XP Remote Web Console
software also simplifies and expedites disaster recovery procedure.
Hitachi ShadowImage for z/OS and HP StorageWorks XP Business Copy
Software
The Hitachi ShadowImage for z/OS (SI-z/OS) and HP StorageWorks XP Business Copy Software
data duplication features for XP disk arrays enable you to set up and maintain multiple copies of
logical volumes within the same XP disk array. SI-z/OS operations are performed using the SI-z/OS
remote console software and can also be managed via TSO and/or ICKDSF commands. XP Business
Copy operations for UNIX/PC server-based data can be performed using the licensed XP Business
Copy remote console software or the XP RAID Manager (Business Continuity Manager) software
on the UNIX/PC server host.
The RAID-protected SI-z/OS and XP Business Copy duplicates are created within the same XP disk
array at hardware speeds. SI-z/OS can be used in conjunction with URz to maintain multiple
copies of critical data at your primary and/or secondary sites and provide maximum flexibility in
data backup and duplication activities. See
“Combining URz and ShadowImage for z/OS”
for further information on combining URz and SI-z/OS operations.
This user’s guide does not cover XP Business Copy operations. For information and instructions on
performing XP Business Copy operations, see the Hitachi ShadowImage™ for z/OS user guide:
HP XP12000/XP10000 Disk Arrays and SVS 200 or contact your HP representative.
Hitachi TrueCopy for z/OS and HP StorageWorks XP Continuous Access
Software
The Hitachi TrueCopy for z/OS (TCz) and HP XP Continuous Access data duplication features
enable you to create copies of logical volumes in two different storage systems at remote locations.
TCz operations are performed using the TCz remote console software and can also be managed
via TSO and/or ICKDSF commands. XP Continuous Access operations for UNIX/PC server-based
data can be performed using the licensed XP Continuous Access remote console software or the
XP RAID Manager (Business Continuity Manager) software on the UNIX/PC server host.
TCz provides synchronous (TCz Sync) and asynchronous (TCz Async) copy modes. TCz Synchronous
provides volume-based real-time data backup. TCz Asynchronous provides volume-based data
backup at another time from the host-requested write operation to prevent an increase of response
time to the host. TCz Synchronous operations support the disaster recovery system by three data
center (3DC) configuration with URz operations. See
“Combining URz with TCz Synchronous (3DC
Cascading Configuration)” (page 74)
for further information on combining URz with TCz
Synchronous operations.
This user’s guide does not cover XP Continuous Access operations. For information and instructions
on performing XP Continuous Access operations, see the Hitachi TrueCopy™ for z/OS user guide:
HP XP12000/XP10000 Disk Arrays and SVS 200 or HP StorageWorks XP Continuous Access
user guide for XP12000/XP10000 Disk Arrays and SVS 200, or contact your HP representative.
