2.

When both systems in the remote-copy pair are ready to resume normal operation, reverse
the natural direction of data flow and resynchronize the systems by performing the following
steps:
a.

Stop I/O to the reversed volume groups on the failover system.

b.

On the failover system (System1), issue the following command:

# setrcopygroup recover -t

where represents the name of the target system with which to
synchronize (System2).

The setrcopygroup recover command copies data from the reversed volume groups on
the failover system to the corresponding volume groups on the recovered system. In this
example, it copies data from the virtual volumes in volume group periodic_group_1.r96
on System1 to periodic_group_1 on System2.

3.

Verify that the remote-copy pair is synchronizing:
a.

Issue the showrcopy command on the failover system (System1).

b.

Verify that for the target system (System2):

the Status of the target system is ready

the Status of all sending links is Up

the SyncStatus of all volumes in the Primary-Rev volume groups is Syncing

The following example shows the showrcopy command output for System1:

# showrcopy
