split (or suspended), Status also shows the suspend type. If the pair is waiting for initial copy,
Status shows the word “Queuing”.

Status

A pair’s status varies between the P-VOL and S-VOL for short periods when the secondary
system changes the pair’s status.

The secondary system can change only the S-VOL’s status. When this occurs, the primary
system detects that the changed S-VOL status and changes P-VOL status accordingly.

On the primary side. when a Cnt Ac-J operation is performed, the primary system changes
the pair status of both P-VOL and S-VOL.

If the volume in the local storage system is a P-VOL, Sync shows the percentage of
synchronization between P-VOL that and S-VOL during the initial copy operation.

Sync Rate

If the volume is an S-VOL, Sync shows the following:

If the pair is split and in Suspend PSUS or PSUE status, Sync shows the synchronization
rate for the S-VOL before and after it was split. The synchronization rate is 100 percent if
S-VOL contents are the same before and after the pair became split.

If the pair is split due to a failure, or is not a P-VOL or a S-VOL, the column is blank.
