3.
From the Actions menu, click Remote Replication > Edit Pair Options.
NOTE:
When you select multiple pairs on the Cnt Ac-J Pairs tab, Edit Pair Options values
may be blank because the selected pairs have different values.
When you specify a value, it is set for all selected pairs.
4.
In the Edit Pair Options window, for Error Level, specify the system response if a failure occurs
in the pair.
•
Mirror: Splits all pairs in the failed pair’s mirror. Mirror is the default.
•
Volume: Splits only the pair that failed.
5.
For CFW box, specify whether to copy cache-fast-write data to the S-VOL or not.
•
Primary Volume Only: Does not copy cache-fast-write data to the S-VOL (the default).
Note that when “Primary Volume Only” is specified, if the P-VOL fails and the host attempts
to read the same data from the S-VOL, the I/O may end abnormally.
•
Secondary Volume Copy: Copies cache-fast-write data to the S-VOL.
NOTE:
In a 3DC multi-target configuration, specify the same CFW setting for both Continuous
Access Journal Z and Continuous Access Synchronous Z pairs. If you specify Secondary
Volume Copy for either the Cnt Ac-J Z or Cnt Ac-S Z pair, the cache-fast-write data is copied
to the S-VOL of the other pair.

Click Finish.

Forcibly deleting pairs
You forcibly delete a pair for the following reasons:
•
A currently unpaired volume that was previously in a pair is unusable because previous pair
information is still in the volume.
•
The pair cannot be connected to the secondary system because of a communication error. In
this case, delete the pair forcibly in the both the primary and the secondary storage systems.
Prerequisite information
•
The volume must be unpaired.
