Deleting data volumes from mirrors (Pairsplit-S: ending copy operations)

A mirror is a combination of a master journal group and a restore journal group. If you delete data

volumes (that is, the primary and secondary volume) from a mirror, copying data from the master journal

group to the restore journal group ends.
The primary and secondary disk array administrators can perform the following procedure:

1.

Ensure that the Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console main pane is in Modify mode. For

more information, see the HP StorageWorks Command View XP User Guide for XP Disk Arrays or the

HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console User Guide for XP12000/XP10000.

2.

Ensure that the Journal Operation pane is displayed (see ”

Displaying the Journal Operation pane

” on

page 88).

3.

Do one of the following:
• In the tree, select a master or restore journal group from below Registered.
• In the tree, select Journal Groups or Registered, and select a master or restore journal group from

the list to the right.

A list of mirrors displays. One row in the list represents one mirror.

4.

Locate mirrors that are not in Initial status.

5.

Select and right-click the mirrors from which you want to delete data volumes.

6.

Select JNL Groups and Pairsplit-S.

7.

In the Preset list, check the settings you made.
• To cancel a setting, select and right-click the setting, and select Cancel.
• If necessary, repeat

step 3

through

step 7

to specify other mirrors.

8.

Click Apply to delete data volumes from the mirrors.

NOTE:

If an error occurs, the right-most column of the Preset list displays the error code. To view detailed

information about the error, right-click the error code, and select Error Detail. An error message appears

providing detailed information about the error.

NOTE:

The Range column indicates the unit used for splitting the mirror, and always displays Group. The

Mode column indicates how data volumes are deleted.

Performing Continuous Access XP Journal pair operations

To perform remote copy operations with Continuous Access XP Journal, you must create pairs of a primary

volume and a secondary volume. A primary volume is a data volume to be copied. A secondary volume is

a data volume that is the copy destination for a primary volume. To manipulate pairs of these data

volumes, use the Pair Operation pane of Continuous Access XP Journal.

NOTE:

This manual sometimes uses the term “volume pair” when referring to a pair of a primary volume

and a secondary volume.
