Failover for N-to-1 Configurations

1.

Reverse the role of all volume groups on the system that is still in normal operation (the failover
system). On the failover system (System1), issue the following command:

# setrcopygroup failover -t

where represents the name of the target system that failed (System2).

The setrcopygroup failover -t command:

Changes all secondary volume groups on the failover system (periodic_group_1.r96
on System1) to primary volume groups, and therefore reverses the direction of data
replication.

Enables I/O to the reversed volume groups (periodic_group_1.r96).

NOTE:

If you do not want to perform disaster recovery operations on all volume groups on

a system, you can use all of the disaster recovery commands on one or more specified volume
groups. For more information, see the description of each command in

“About the Remote-Copy

Commands” (page 261)
