In the example above:
•
Name
. The name of the group.
•
Target
. The target to which the group is mirrored.
•
Status
. The following values can appear in the group Status field:
New
. Group that has not yet been started.
◦
◦
Starting
. Currently attempting to start the group.
◦
Started
. Group is started (has Remote Copy running).
◦
Stopped
. Group was stopped.
•
Role
. The role of the group as either Primary or Secondary.
•
Mode
. The mode of the group as either Periodic or Synchronous.
•
Options
. The options set for the group.
•
LocalVV
and ID. The name and ID of this system.
•
RemoteVV
and ID. The name and ID of the target system.
•
SyncStatus
. The following values can appear in the SyncStatus field:
New
. Volume is configured as a primary volume, but has not yet been started.
◦
◦
Syncing
. Volume is currently synchronizing.
◦
Synced
. The primary and secondary volumes are in sync.
◦
NotSynced
. The volume is not synchronized, likely the result of an initial sync failure or
some other failure.
◦
Stopped
. The volumes were previously synchronized, but may be out of sync due to a
group being stopped.
◦
Stale
. Volume was previously synchronized, but a previous synchronization attempt
failed. Thus the secondary has a valid copy, just not a valid copy from the last
synchronization attempt.
•
LastSyncTime
. The time at which the last volume synchronization was completed. Applies
only to asynchronous periodic groups. Synchronous groups display N/A if they have been
started and are actively replicating.
NOTES
•
If the showrcopy command is used with no specifiers, all configuration information is
displayed.
•
The showrcopy command also displays the group’s domain names if the global -listdom
option is used or if the TPDLISTDOM environment variable is set.
•
If showrcopy link|group|target is used without specifying a name, information for all
links, groups, or targets is displayed.
•
To limit the performance impact of Remote Copy on the rest of the HP 3PAR Storage System,
the number of volumes that are concurrently synchronizing is limited to 20 volumes.
This limit is not user-configurable and applies to the initial synchronization as well as subsequent
resynchronizations for synchronous as well as asynchronous periodic groups. For example,
if there are 30 volumes in asynchronous periodic mode that are being resynchronized, you
