Deleting xp snapshot pairs – HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console Software User Manual
Page 89
XP Snapshot does not support Quick Resync mode. If you specify Quick Resync mode, snapshot
data will not be deleted even if the command ends normally. Therefore, even if you specify Quick
Resync mode, Quick Resync mode does not take effect.
Deleting XP Snapshot Pairs
Use the command of the RAID Manager or the Pairsplit-S dialog box to delete XP Snapshot pairs.
If you use the RAID Manager to delete XP Snapshot pairs, you need to use the pairsplit -S
command. By using this command, you can delete only one pair at a time. For details about the
pairsplit -S
command, see the HP StorageWorks XP RAID Manager User Guide.
If you use the Pairsplit-S dialog box, you can delete multiple pairs at the same time. You can open
the Pairsplit-S dialog box either from XP Business Copy's Pair Operation window or the XP Snapshot
window. To select the pairs to be deleted by the port or host group, open the Pairsplit-S dialog
box from the Pair Operation window. To select the pairs by pool, open the Pairsplit-S dialog box
from the XP Snapshot window.
