Deleting virtual volumes
1. Change the Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console mode to Modify. For more information
about changing the mode, see the HP StorageWorks Command View XP User Guide for XP Disk Arrays
or the HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console User Guide for XP12000/XP10000.
2. In the V-VOL group tree on the V-VOL pane, select and right-click the V-VOL group containing the
V-VOLs you want to delete.
3. Select Delete V-VOL Group. A confirmation message appears asking if it is OK to delete the selected
V-VOL group.
4. Click OK. The selected V-VOL group’s icon changes to an icon indicating the deleting process.
5. Click Apply. A confirmation message appears asking if it is OK to apply the setting to the disk array.
6. Click OK. The confirmation message closes, and the V-VOL group is deleted in the disk array.
NOTE: You cannot delete the V-VOL if it is used as a Snapshot XP pair’s S-VOL. To delete a V-VOL
used as an S-VOL, first delete the pair.
Creating Snapshot XP pairs
Use the RAID Manager
paircreate
command to create Snapshot XP pairs. To create Snapshot XP pairs,
the following are required:
• Specify a volume that meets the requirements in Table 1 on page 13 as a P-VOL
• Specify a volume that meets the requirements in Table 2 on page 14 as an S-VOL
• Specify the same size volumes as a P-VOL and S-VOL
• Specify the same pool for pairs that share a P-VOL when you use a volume that is already used as
another pair’s P-VOL for the new pair’s P-VOL
For more information about the
paircreate
command, see the HP StorageWorks RAID Manager XP
User Guide.
Storing snapshot data
Use the RAID Manager
pairsplit
command to store snapshot data in the pool. You can store a
maximum of 64 snapshot data per P-VOL. To store snapshot data, the pair status must be PAIR.
NOTE: When a P-VOL is paired with two or more volumes, ensure that none of the pairs are in
COPY(RS-R) status.
You can use the
pairsplit
command to store one snapshot data at a time, but you cannot specify the
snapshot data ID. For more information about the
pairsplit
command, see the HP StorageWorks RAID
Manager XP User Guide.
