cluster
configuration
In a Replication Manager operating environment, the term
cluster
configuration
refers to a configuration that consists of an executing node
and a standby node, each of which includes a duplicate management server.
cluster software
Software installed on management server nodes to boost overall availability by
duplicating management servers as a cluster system. Available software depends
on the OS that runs on the management server.
configuration
definition file
The text file which defines connected hosts and the volumes and groups known
to the P9000 RAID Manager instance. Physical volumes (special files) used
independently by the hosts are combined when paired logical volume names
and group names are given to them. The configuration definition file establishes
the correspondence between the physical volumes used by the hosts, the paired
logical volumes and the names of the remote hosts connected to the volumes.
Also referred to as a P9000 RAID Manager configuration definition file or
HORCM configuration definition file.
consistency group
A group used as a unit in Continuous Access, or Continuous Access Journal that
maintains integrity of the update order for volumes.
Continuous Access
Software that duplicates volumes between storage systems. Continuous Access
duplicates all data on the volumes. Two types of Continuous Access are provided:
Continuous Access Synchronous, Continuous Access Asynchronous. For more
information, see the Continuous Access manuals.
Continuous Access
Journal
Software that asynchronously duplicates multiple volumes between storage
systems. Continuous Access Journal temporarily stores differential data on a
journal volume and then duplicates the data. Continuous Access Journal can
duplicate data on remote sites; it can also be used to create 3DC multi-target
and cascade configurations among multiple sites. For more information, see the
Continuous Access Journal manuals.
copy group
A group of copy pairs. You can perform operations, such as modifying pair
statuses, on all the copy pairs in the group.
copy group
configuration
definition
A list of copy pairs. In a mainframe environment, it refers to a file containing a
list of copy pairs managed by HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity
Manager Software. The data in the file is created or added to when a copy pair
is defined. The file name matches the copy group. In an open system environment,
it is also referred to as copy pair configuration definition.
copy group
container
(container)
A collection of copy groups (consistency groups) available only in a mainframe
environment.
copy group list
A list of copy group configuration definitions.
copy pair
Denotes a primary and secondary volume pair linked by the volume replication
functionality of a storage system. Also called
paired volumes
. In this manual,
copy pair
is sometimes referred to simply as a
pair
.
copy pair state
A value that represents the status of both a primary volume and a secondary
volume. The copy pair state displayed in Replication Manager corresponds to
the copy pair status displayed in prerequisite products (such as Device Manager,
P9000 RAID Manager, and HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity
Manager Software) and in storage system operation management software (such
as Remote Web Console).
