• CCC: LU number
• XX:YY:ZZ: LDKC number:CU number:LDEV number
Note:
An LDEV number that ends with a # mark indicates that the LDEV is an external volume
(for example, 00:00:01#). An LDEV number that ends with a letter X indicates that the LDEV is
a virtual volume used by XP Thin Provisioning (for example, 00:00:01X). For details regarding
the external volumes, see the HP StorageWorks XP24000 External Storage Software User’s
Guide. For information about XP Thin Provisioning, see the HP StorageWorks XP24000 Thin
Provisioning Software User's Guide.

pair displayed in the Pairsplit Volume List) with the selected S-VOL.

List as a L2 pair. To use the Cascade button, you must select one of the listed L1 pairs.

The OK button adds the operation (setting) to split a pair composed of the P-VOL and S-VOL you
selected in the Pairsplit dialog box to the Preview List on the Pair Operation window.

To apply the new setting displayed in the Preview List to the storage system, you must
click Apply on the Pair Operation window.

Performing Only Pair Splitting
To split one or more existing Business Copy pairs:
Caution:
The P-VOL and S-VOL are synchronized only when the pair status changes from COPY(SP) or
PSUS(SP) to PSUS. Due to the Business Copy asynchronous update copy operations, this status transition
can take several minutes.
If you want the S-VOLs you are intending to split to be identical to the P-VOLs, stop all write operations
to the P-VOLs before splitting the pairs. This ensures that there are no updates to the P-VOLs while the
pairsplit operations are synchronizing the S-VOLs to the P-VOLs.
1.
Go to the Pair Operation window, and select the desired port or host group in the Tree to
filter the volumes displayed in the Volume List.
2.
Select the pairs you want to split, right-click the selected pairs to display the pop-up menu, and
then select the Pairsplit command to open the Pairsplit dialog box.
Note:
You cannot split a suspended (PSUE) pair.
3.
On the Pairsplit dialog box, select the copy pace from the Copy Pace drop-down list for all
pairs being split.
Note:
The copy pace is set for all pairs being split. If you change the setting, the last setting
will become effective.
4.
Select the split type from the Select Split Type drop-down list for all pairs being split.
Note:
The split type is set for all pairs being split. If you change the setting, the latest setting is
applied to all pairs.
5.
When the Pairsplit dialog box displays the desired pairs, click OK to reflect all pairs to the
Preview List on the Pair Operation window.
Note:
Use the Delete command selected from the pop-up menu (that will be displayed by
right-clicking) to remove any pairs from the Pairsplit Volume List.
6.
On the Pair Operation window, click Apply to apply the pairsplit operations set in the Pairsplit
dialog box to the storage system.
When the pairsplit operations start, the Pair Operation window shows the new pairs with
COPY(SP) or PSUS(SP) status and the progress (%) of the update copy operations. The PSUS
status is displayed right away if there were no pending update copy operations.
