Associating primary and remote disk arrays and configuring logical paths (Add
DKC)
Use the Add DKC pane to associate the primary and secondary disk arrays and establish logical paths
between the two disk arrays. Logical paths connect the primary and secondary disk arrays. The primary
and secondary disk arrays use logical paths to communicate with each other.
One primary disk array can be associated with up to 64 secondary disk arrays. Up to eight logical paths
can be configured between one primary disk array and one secondary disk array. Therefore, one primary
disk array can have up to 512 logical paths to secondary disk arrays.
The primary and secondary disk array administrators must perform the following procedure:
1.
Ensure that the remote copy connections and ports are properly configured. Also, obtain the remote
disk array’s serial number.
NOTE:
To get the remote disk array’s serial number, ask the remote disk array’s administrator. The
serial number is displayed in the Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console main pane when
logging into the disk array.
