Configuring N-to-1 Remote Copy

NOTE:

HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software requires an HP 3PAR Remote Copy license. For more

information about the license, see the HP 3PAR OS Concepts Guide.

In an N-to-1 Remote Copy relationship, a maximum of four primary (source) systems use the same
system as backup system. N-to-1 Remote Copy configurations can operate in either a combination
of unidirectional and bidirectional (for a single Remote Copy group pair), or in complete
unidirectional functionality.

NOTE:

To configure N-to-1 Remote Copy, you must have at least two available systems with

configured Remote Copy ports.

To configure N-to-1 Remote Copy:
1.

In the Manager Pane, select Remote Copy.

2.

In the Common Actions panel, click New Configuration.

The New Remote Copy Configuration wizard appears.
