Editing copy group settings

Copy group settings can be edited for copy groups in mainframe systems. You can edit copy group
settings for existing copy groups or while defining new copy groups. (Replication Manager uses
default values for copy group settings if the copy group settings are not edited when defining new
copy groups.)

When copy group configuration definitions created in HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity
Manager Software are edited in Replication Manager, configuration options specified in BCM are
inherited by Replication Manager. For details on how inherited options are used by Replication
Manager, see “

About inheritance of copy group configuration options from BCM

” on page 184.
