The secondary volume of the multiple copy groups on the left is the primary volume of the single copy
group on the right.

If a 3DC multi-target configuration is used

In a 3DC multi-target configuration that uses the delta resync function, the copy group displayed on
the right of the upper line branches to the right, and this copy group is displayed as being connected
to the one on the lower line. In this case, the copy group displayed on the right of the upper line
shares a primary volume with the copy group displayed on the lower line. Additionally, the secondary
volume of the copy group displayed on the left of the upper line is the primary volume of the copy
group displayed on the right of the upper line, and the copy group displayed on the right of the upper
line shares a secondary volume with the copy group displayed on the lower line.

In this example,

Copy Group_A

and

Copy Group_C

share a primary volume, the secondary volume

of

Copy Group_A

is the primary volume of

Copy Group_B

, and

Copy Group_B

and

Copy

Group_C

share a secondary volume.

If a 3DC multi-target configuration further connects to other copy groups

A 3DC multi-target configuration that uses the delta resync function can further connect to other copy
groups that are managed by Business Copy (or Snapshot). In this case, a volume in the 3DC multi-target
configuration is used as the primary volume and the volumes displayed on the right are used as the
secondary volumes. The following three examples illustrate this pattern.
