Editing copy groups by setting copy type
In open systems, you can specify the copy type for copy groups in simplex (SMPL) status. Copy groups
are in simplex status when a configuration definition file is already defined on the host but a pair
does not exist in the storage. The copy type and copy direction are therefore unknown for such copy
groups. To create a pair with the Pair Configuration Wizard using a pre-existing configuration definition
file, it is necessary to assign a copy type.
