Failback after SVOL-SMPL takeover

This failover situation occurs, for instance, when:

• The original P-VOL status is unavailable

• The S-VOL is changed to SMPL and unable to failback.

The Host B (DC1) sequence illustrated by the following figures is required
to change the SMPL volume to pvol_pair and make it suitable for failback.

From the Data Center 1 (DC1) side, the required steps are:

1. pairsplit –S

2. paircreate –vl

3. pairevtwait (wait for PAIR)

From the Data Center 2 (DC2) side, the required steps (not shown) would
be:

1. pairsplit –S

2. paircreate –vr

3. pairevtwait (wait for PAIR)
