About inheritance of copy group configuration options from BCM

When copy group configuration definition files created in HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business
Continuity Manager Software are edited in Replication Manager, configuration options specified in
BCM are inherited by Replication Manager. These inherited option values are displayed in the Edit
Group window, when settings for copy groups (that use the relevant configuration definition file) are
edited using the Pair Configuration Wizard.

Even if the copy group settings are not edited when creating copy groups (using the relevant
configuration definition file), the inherited options are still used for copy group configuration. The only
exception when the inherited options are not used is for copy groups of copy type Cnt Ac-J for which
the

EXCTG ID

,

Super DKC

or

ArbCmdDevice

option values are specified. If these option values

are specified, they will be deleted from the copy group configuration definition file when the option
is changed during pair addition, deletion or editing.
