• Initial Copy Pace (3 or 15): Select the number of the tracks 3 or 15 for resume copy. The default

setting is 15.

• Priority (From 0 to 256): Set the priority (0-256) for the resume operation, which determines the

order in which the resume operations will be performed.

Asynchronous Parameters:
• Resume Range: When Group is selected, resume all split or suspended TC390A pairs in the same

group as the selected pair. When Volume is selected, resume only the selected TC390A pair(s).

• Error Level: The Error Level option specifies the error level for the TC390A pair(s): Group or Volume.

This option is available only when Volume is selected for the Resume Range.

NOTE:

With the setting of Volume for Resume Range, if there are Duplex status pairs and pairs

other than Duplex status in the same consistency group, unexpected suspend may occur during the

pair operations (Suspend, Delete, and Resume) under the heavy I/O load conditions. You can

estimate whether the I/O load condition is heavy or not from the rate of sidefile cache (around

30%), or from the frequency of the host I/O if you cannot see the rate of sidefile cache. The pair

operations should be performed under the light I/O load condition.

For more information about the option parameters, see ”

Creating TrueCopy volume pairs (Add Pair)

on page 125.

NOTE:

The CESTPAIR (MODE=RESYNC) command can be used to resume suspended TC390

Synchronous and TC390A pairs (see ”

Using PPRC commands for TrueCopy

” on page 157).

NOTE:

If you select a pair from the volume list and change the settings, and if you use a drop-down list to

set blank to a parameter, the parameter takes the default value for each pair. If you select the settings from

the preset list before applying the changed settings, and if you use a drop-down list to set blank to a

parameter in the Resume Pair panel, the parameter value in the preset list will not be changed.

NOTE:

If an MCU/RCU is powered off and its backup batteries are fully discharged while TC390 pairs

are suspended, the M-VOL/R-VOL cylinder bitmaps will not be retained. In this unlikely case, the

MCU/RCU will mark all cylinders of all split or suspended TC390 volumes as modified so that the MCU

will perform the equivalent of an entire initial copy operation when the pairs are resumed.

To resume one or more split or suspended TC390 volume pairs:

1.

If any pair was suspended due to an error condition (use the Pair Status window to view the suspend

type), verify that the error condition has been removed (see ”

General TrueCopy troubleshooting

” on

page 151 for troubleshooting instructions). The MCU will not resume the pair(s) until the error condition

has been removed.

2.

Connect to the MCU of the pair(s) to be resumed and start the TC390 software.

3.

From the CU Number tree on the TrueCopy main window, select the number of the correct CU image.

4.

If you are resuming split or suspended Volumes, select the pair(s) on the Volume list on the TrueCopy

main window. Select Suspended pairs. Select either Sync or Async pairs (not both). If you plan to use

the Resume Range option, select only one TC390A pair in the group.

5.

Right-click to display the pop-up menu and click Resume Pair. The Resume Pair window is displayed.

6.

From the Resume Pair window, select the appropriate pair options, and click Set to close the Resume

Pair window and set the parameters. The list changes to the Pair Settings Parameter list (Resume Pair).

Verify that all resume options and pair options for each pair are correct.
