.

Where the method is defined for managing differential data. Options are Auto, Cylinder,
Track.

Difference Management

Specifies whether the CFW data will be copied to the R-VOL.

CFW Data

Specifies whether the main system will suspend the pair if the remote system cannot execute
DFW (DASD fast write) to the R-VOL.

DFW to R-VOL

DFW required indicates that the pair will be suspended when DFW data to the R-VOL is
blocked.

DFW not required indicates that the pair will not be suspended when DFW data to the
R-VOL is blocked.

The interaction of the DFW required setting and the M-VOL fence level setting can cause a
host application to fail with a permanent I/O error when attempting to update an M-VOL.
Keep track of which pairs have the DFW required setting, and make sure that DFW to the
R-VOL is not blocked.

If a Continuous Access Synchronous Z pair is established using PPRC commands, the DFW
to R-VOL option is set to the DFW not required setting.

Specifies whether or not the host I/O timestamp is transferred from M VOL to R VOL.
