The Confirm page appears.
CAUTION:
Please check the following before confirming the pair status change operation:
• Before a Split operation is performed, ensure that I/O processing for the primary volume
is not being performed because this operation might result in incomplete data in the
secondary volume.
• Before a Resync operation, ensure that the data in the secondary volume is no longer
required because this operation will overwrite the secondary volume data.
• Before a Restore operation is performed ensure that the data in the primary volume is
no longer required because this operation will overwrite the primary volume data.
• Ensure the value of the copy pace is correct because this operation may take longer if
an incorrect value is used.
7. Check the specified settings and click Confirm.
The Finish page appears.
8. Click Finish.
The settings specified in the wizard are registered as tasks. Check the Status column for the tasks
to make sure that the status of the copy pair was changed successfully. To view the tasks, from
the Explorer menu, select Tasks and then Tasks.
TIP:
In 3DC Delta Resync configurations, executing pair operations against Cnt Ac-S or Cnt Ac-J (DeltaUR)
changes the related copy group status. Refresh configuration after the Task execution. If the related
copy group status is not changed, execute the Refresh Copy Group operation.

Changing the copy pair status for each copy group or container
When you change the pair status of copy pairs in a copy group, you must know all the pairs related
to the copy pairs whose status you want to change. In Replication Manager, when you select a copy
pair, all the related copy pairs are displayed in a list. From this list, you can select the copy pairs
whose status you want to change.
To change the status of the copy pairs in a copy group or container:
1. Display the information about the host or configuration definition file where you want to change
the status of copy pairs.
For details on how to display this information, see “ Viewing individual host
information ” on page 294 or “ Viewing copy pair configuration definition information ” on page 273.
