TrueCopy for the XP128/XP1024/XP10000/XP12000

History information older than seven days is automatically deleted. However, if the number of

operations exceeds 65,535, the oldest operations are deleted in chronological order to keep the

number at 65,535, even if the operations occurred within the last week. The history file always contains

the most recent operations up to a maximum of 65,535 operations. The maintenance information for

an entire week may not always be available.
The history information can be sorted by column and in ascending or descending order.

Previous and Next buttons: The list displays up to a maximum of 16,384 operations at a time. Use

these buttons to display the previous or next 16,384 operations.

RCU Operations

The RCUs are the control units that control the R-VOLs of the volume pairs. The RCUs are connected to the

MCUs through the remote copy connections and receive and process commands from the MCUs. For

TC390 operations, the secondary Command View XP management station at the remote site should be

connected to the RCUs to allow TC390 commands to be issued directly to the RCU (for example, in case of

disaster or failure at the primary site).
The MCUs are the control units which control the M-VOLs of the volume pairs. The MCUs receive and

process user-requested TC390 commands from the Command View XP management station or XP Remote

Web Console, and send the remote copy operations to the RCUs. The MCUs can also function as RCUs,

provided the remote copy connections are properly configured.
The RCU operations are performed separately for each CU image of each MCU and RCU to provide

maximum flexibility in TC390 configurations. The RCU operations are:

Configuring the host interface ports for MCU-RCU connection (see page 77)

Viewing RCU status (see page 78)

Registering RCUs (see page 81)

Setting the RCU options (see page 81)

The RCU options apply to all CU images of the MCU.
