If an S-VOL in PAIR status accepts write I/O, the storage system assumes that a failover occurred. Then the S-VOL changes
to SSWS status and the P-VOL usually changes to the PSUS status.
When the pair is in PSUS, SSWS, or PSUE status, the primary system generates SIMs (service
information message). You can check SIMs in the Remote Web Console Alerts window.
Split types (PSUS status)
Split types appear on the Detailed Information dialog box; they specify the reason a pair is split.
When you split a pair, the pair status changes to PSUS and updates to the S-VOL stop. You can
set an option to block updates to the P-VOL also while the pair is split. This results in the P-VOL and
S-VOL staying synchronized.
If the P-VOL accepts write I/O while the pair is split, the primary system records the updated tracks
of the P-VOL as differential data. This data is copied to the S-VOL when the pair is resynchronized.
The following table lists PSUS types.
