Cautions on Switching Off the Power Supply
If you have to switch off the power supply of the XP storage system during SIz operations, make
sure to:
•
Complete copying for the SIz pair in the SP-pend or V-split status first to change the pair status
from SP-pend or V-split to split, and then switch off the power supply.
If the shared memory is volatilized when you switch on the power supply again, the pair in
the SP-pend or V-split status changes to suspend.
•
First complete the processing of At-Time Split function, and then switch off the power supply.
If the status of only a part of the pairs in the same CTG is changed, the processing of At-Time
Split function may not resume when you switch on the power supply, and the status of some
pairs may remain unchanged.
•
Establish a timetable for SIz copying operations according to required copying time that may
take longer because of the power-supply off.
If the shared memory is volatilized when you switch on the power supply again, the following
conditions occur.
◦
If the SIz pair was in the pending or resync status, data that was already copied before
the power-supply off again becomes the target data to be copied after the power-supply
on. Even if there is no host I/O, the data consistency rate does not reach 100% when
the SIz pair status changes to duplex. When the SIz pair status changes to duplex, the
target data is copied to the T-VOL.
◦
If the SIz pair was in the duplex status, data that was already copied before the
power-supply off again becomes the target data to be copied after the power-supply on.
In this case, the data consistency rate is 0%, and the target data is copied to the T-VOL.
◦
If the SIz pair was in the split status, the entire volume becomes the differential data. In
this case, the data consistency rate is 0%, and the entire volume is copied to the T-VOL
when you perform the pairresync operation.
