Creating L1 pairs
To create new BC pairs and split them immediately so you can access the S-VOLs as soon as possible, use
the pairsplit operation instead of the paircreate operation (see ” Splitting BC pairs (Pairsplit) ” on page 62).
1. Ensure that the S-VOLs are unmounted.
2. In the BC main screen, select the port, host group, or P-VOL in the Tree View box to filter the volumes
displayed in the Volume list.
3. Select the P-VOLs for the new pairs, right-click the selected P-VOLs, and select Paircreate. The Paircreate
window appears.
NOTE: Do not select reserved volumes.
4. Set the initial copy pace for all pairs being created: Slower, Medium, or Faster.
5. Verify that the Paircreate window displays the P-VOLs. To remove any volumes from the list, select the
volumes, right-click the volumes, and select Delete.
6. Select the S-VOLs for each P-VOL as follows:
a. Select the P-VOL in the Paircreate window.
b. In the Select MU list, select the MU number for the L1 pair being created: 0, 1, or 2.
c. Select the port in the Port list, select the Reserved check box to display reserved volumes, and select
the S-VOL.
NOTE: You can select an unreserved volume as the S-VOL. When you create the pair, the disk
array changes the reserve attribute to “reserved” automatically.
