About copy groups defined by device group
Copy group information can be defined in a storage system for HP StorageWorks P9500 storage
systems. Operations on such copy groups are performed through the Service Processor (SVP) only
and cannot be changed from Replication Manager.
Replication Manager detects copy groups defined by device group and displays them along with
copy groups defined in HORCM files in the Copy Groups tab of the
host-name
subwindow.
NOTE:
For copy groups defined by device group, an empty box is displayed in Replication Manager for
server and pair configuration file information as follows.
Server and Config File (Primary and Secondary) in the following windows:
•
Copy Groups - copy-type-name dialog box
•

Copy group information is acquired using SVPs using the instance of Device Manager agent and
