The following table shows the pair status and descriptions. The P-VOL and V-VOL access columns
in the following table indicate whether the volumes accept read/write.

V-VOL access

P-VOL access

Description

Status

R/W disabled

Yes

The pair is in the process of being deleted. You cannot perform pair
operations while the pair is in this status. After the pair is deleted,
the status changes to “SMPL”.

SMPL(PD)

R/W disabled

Yes

The storage system has accepted the paircreate initial copy. The
storage system accepts read/write operations to the P-VOL, but does
not accept read/write operations to the S-VOL.

COPY

R/W disabled

Yes

The volumes are paired. The storage system does not accept
read/write operations to the S-VOL.

PAIR

R/W enabled.
Can be mounted.

Yes

The snapshot is split. The storage system accepts read/write
operations to the S-VOL. Differential data between the P-VOL and
S-VOL is retained. You can immediately perform the resync operation.

PSUS

R/W disabled

Yes

The data pool threshold is exceeded in “PAIR” status.

PFUL

R/W enabled

Yes

The data pool threshold is exceeded in “PSUS” status.

PFUS

R/W disabled

Yes

The pair is in the process of reverse pairresync. The storage system
does not accept read/write operations to the S-VOL. Only the S-VOL
differential data is copied to the P-VOL.

RCPY*

R/W disabled

appears. If you have created pairs with the volumes online, and then

run DEVSERVE to a read/write disabled volume, a normal value is returned.

You can check on the percentage of data that is synchronized between the P-VOLs and S-VOLs.

NOTE:

You can show the latest synchronous rate by clicking Refresh View. If you close the

window, information in the Local Replications window may not be the latest. Click Refresh View
again.
