• Pre-distribution: Distribution of the latest copy group definition file from the current primary host
to the copy group that will be the next primary host. The file can be distributed to only one user-

and the copy group definition of the original primary host does not match the copy group definition
of the new primary host. For details, see “
About pre-distribution of copy group definition
