Business Copy XP (BC) for the XP128/XP1024

Use the Pairsplit-S window (see

Deleting BC pairs (Pairsplit-S)

” on page 54) to delete BC pairs. When a

BC pair is deleted, pending update copy operations for the pair are discarded, and the status of the P-VOL

and S-VOL is changed to SMPL.

CAUTION:

The S-VOL of a duplex pair (PAIR status) may not be identical to its P-VOL due to the

asynchronous BC update copy operations. See ”

Deleting BC pairs (Pairsplit-S)

” on page 54 for instructions

on synchronizing the volumes before deleting the pair.

BC options

Use the BC options to extend standard BC operations such as the paircreate and pairresync operations.

The following table lists the options that are currently available.

NOTE:

The number of available option types depends on the disk array’s settings.

Swap&Freeze option

This option allows the S-VOLs of a BC pair to remain unchanged after the quick restore operation. If the

quick restore operation is performed on a BC pair with the Swap&Freeze option, update copy operations

are suppressed for pairs in PAIR status after the quick restore operation. If the quick restore operation is

performed without the Swap&Freeze option, the P-VOL and S-VOL are resynchronized when update copy

operations are performed for pairs in PAIR status.
