Volume: Port - Host group - LUN of the selected volume.

NOTE:

If # is added to the end of the LDEV number, such as 00:3C#, the LDEV is an external

volume. For details about external volumes, see the HP StorageWorks External Storage XP user

guide.

S-VOL Write: Default is Disable.
• Enable: The S-VOL of this Continuous Access XP pair is available to receive read and write I/Os

while the Continuous Access XP pair is split. If you select Enable and you want to resync the pair

later, select S-VOL in the Suspend Kind option to ensure that P-VOL and S-VOL bitmaps are merged

at the MCU. This option is available only when the selected volume is a Continuous Access XP

P-VOL.

• Disable: The S-VOL of this pair accepts I/Os only while the pair is split.

Suspend Kind: Default is S-VOL.
• S-VOL: The P-VOL accepts all subsequent write I/O operations, and the MCU tracks updates while

the pair is split. Subsequent write I/O operations to the P-VOL are permitted or rejected,

depending on fence level of the pair. This setting is available from the MCU and RCU. Used this

setting to keep the P-VOL online. All Continuous Access XP Asynchronous pairs have this setting.

• P-VOL Failure (available only for Continuous Access XP Synchronous and only when connected to

the MCU): The MCU rejects all write I/O operations to the P-VOL while the pair is split, regardless

of the P-VOL fence-level setting. Use this setting to maintain synchronization of the Continuous

Access XP pair.

Asynchronous Parameters:
• Suspend Range:

Group: The MCU and RCU splits all other Continuous Access XP Async pairs in the same

consistency group as the specified pairs. This option is available only when one pair is selected.
LU: The MCU and RCU splits only the specified Continuous Access XP Async pairs (even if error

level of the pair is group).
