Ensure that all of the conditions below are satisfied for open systems:
•
The requirements (microcode and system configuration) for Business Copy or Continuous Access
or other required storage system volume replication functions must be satisfied. For details about
the requirements and the configuration procedures, see the storage system documentation for the
applicable storage system model.
•
The storage systems to which the primary and secondary volumes belong are registered as man-
agement targets of Device Manager, and the applicable Device Manager server is registered as
a Replication Manager information source.
•
A Device Manager agent is installed on the pair management server, and the environment setup
has been completed.
•
P9000 RAID Manager is installed on the pair management server and the pair management
server recognizes the command device in the target storage system.
•
If the pair management server is equipped with more than one NIC, the Device Manager agent
and P9000 RAID Manager use the same IP address.
•
The primary and secondary volumes are recognized individually from the hosts.
•
The serial numbers for all storage systems managed by Device Manager are unique.
TIP:
For open systems, Replication Manager acquires configuration information maintained by Device
Manager servers that function as information sources. If you used a product other than P9000
Command View AE Suite to change the configuration, either update the information separately for
each storage system (in this case, the Device Manager refresh function executes automatically), or
refresh the storage systems from Device Manager before you perform the operation. To perform a
storage system refresh, in the Explorer menu, choose Resources and then Storage, and then click
Refresh Storage System.
Ensure that all of the conditions below are satisfied for mainframe systems:
•
The requirements (microcode and system configuration) of the storage system volume replication
functionality (such as Business Copy or Continuous Access) are satisfied. For details about the re-
quirements and the configuration procedures, see the storage system documentation for the applic-
able storage system model.
•
The storage systems to which the primary and secondary volumes belong are registered as man-
agement targets of Device Manager, and the applicable Device Manager server is registered as
a Replication Manager information source.
•
The primary and secondary volumes are recognized individually from the hosts.
•
The serial numbers for all storage systems managed by Device Manager are unique.
TIP:
For mainframe systems, some of the storage system setup operations need to be performed with
Remote Web Console and additional prerequisites need to be satisfied in order to manage mainframe
copy pairs. For details on prerequisites for mainframe pair configuration, see “
configuration (mainframe systems)
After verifying the prerequisite environment, you must refresh the configuration information to apply
the latest configuration information to Replication Manager. To do this, from the Explorer menu,
choose Settings and then Refresh Setting.
