Transferring business tasks from Continuous Access XP Journal secondary sites to primary sites

If you follow the instructions in

Recovering from primary site and Continuous Access XP Synchronous

secondary site failures

” on page 70 and remove failures from the primary site and Continuous Access XP

Synchronous secondary site, you can transfer the business tasks back to the primary site.
To transfer the business tasks back to the primary site:

1.

Use RAID Manager to delete the Continuous Access XP Synchronous pair.

2.

If the Continuous Access XP Journal pair has not been resynchronized to reverse the primary and

secondary volumes and is suspended, use RAID Manager to resynchronize the pair to reverse the

primary and secondary volumes.
The secondary data volume at the former Continuous Access XP Journal secondary site changes to the

primary data volume. The primary data volume at the former primary site changes to the secondary

data volume (see the upper-right portion of

Figure 35

).

3.

Stop the business tasks at the Continuous Access XP Journal secondary site.

4.

Use RAID Manager to execute the

horctakeover

command on the Continuous Access XP Journal

pair. The Continuous Access XP Journal primary and secondary volumes are reversed.

5.

Use the primary volume at the primary site to resume the business tasks.

6.

Use RAID Manager to resynchronize the Continuous Access XP pair. The system configuration changes

to the original 3DC multi-target configuration (see the lower-right portion of

Figure 35

).
