Continuity Manager Software or P9000 mainframe agent that is an information source. You can also
disable periodic refreshing.

To refresh the copy pair status automatically for each information source:

1.

From the Explorer menu, choose Settings and then Refresh Setting.

The Refresh Setting subwindow appears.

2.

Click the Monitoring Setting link.

The Monitoring Setting subwindow appears.

3.

Click the

icon of the information source from which you want the copy pair status to be

acquired automatically.

The Edit Interval of Refresh Pair Status - information-source-name dialog box or the Edit Interval
of Refresh Pair Status - pair-management-server-name dialog box appears.

4.

Enter the refresh interval.

In open systems in which the interval has been set for each pair management server, if you specify
Refresh Interval Settings for Agent, the settings of all pair management servers belonging to the
information source are overwritten. If you want to set a different refresh interval for a specific
pair management server, set the refresh interval for that server later.

If you do not want to use the Device Manager refresh function because all copy pairs of an open
system are managed by pair management servers, select the Disable periodical refresh check
box in Refresh Interval Settings for Device Manager.

5.

Confirm and apply the settings.

The settings specified in the Monitoring Setting subwindow are applied. From this point, the copy
pair status is automatically refreshed based on the specified settings.

TIP:

In mainframe systems, the copy pair status might not be refreshed, depending on the status of HP
StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software or P9000 mainframe agent. If the
information in the Last Refresh column is not updated at the specified time, check the status of HP
StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software or P9000 mainframe agent.
