Checking the Links between Systems

1.

To check the links between the primary and backup systems, issue the showrcopy command
on the backup system (for example, System2):

# showrcopy

It might take several minutes for the links to come up between the two storage systems.

NOTE:

For complete details on the showrcopy command, including valid synchronization,

link, and group states, see

“The Remote Copy Commands” (page 224)

.

2.

Verify that:

The Target Information area shows a Status of ready.

The Link Information area shows a Status of Up for all the links.

For example, showrcopy output on System2 looks like:
