retry the XP Continuous Access Journal operations after the
problem is solved.
If no SIM was generated, wait for a while (5 or 6 minutes),
then check the pair status of the pair(s) being created or
resumed. If the pair status changed correctly, the failed
operation completed after the timeout message was issued.
If the pair status did not change as expected, a heavy
workload might have prevented the XP Continuous Access
Journal operation from being completed. In this case, retry
the XP Continuous Access Journal operation when the storage
system has a lighter workload.
If a communications error occurs between the Remote Web
Console computer and the SVP, see the HP
XP24000/XP20000 Remote Web Console User Guide for
instructions.
See
“Recovering a Pinned Track” (page 195)
