-

Initial: A mirror in initial status. Journal volumes are registered in this journal, but no data

volumes (P-VOLs or S-VOLs) are registered in this journal. If a Cnt Ac-J Z pair is created, data

Initial copy is in progress. The P-VOL and the S-VOL are not synchronized.

Initial copy is finished. The P-VOL and the S-VOL are synchronized.

If a mirror is in Active status, some of the pairs in the mirror might be split. If this happens,
the word Warning appears. To restore such pairs, use the Pair Operation window.

HaltAccept: An operation for splitting the mirror has been started. The status of the mirror

immediately changes to Halting. HaltAccept can indicate status of restore journal in the mirror,
but cannot indicate status of master journals in the mirror.

Halting: An operation for splitting or deleting the mirror is in progress. The P-VOL and

S-VOL are not synchronized. Splitting a mirror changes the status in the following order:

following order: Halting, Halt, Stopping, Stopped, and finally Initial.

-

Halt: An operation for splitting or deleting the mirror is in progress. The P-VOL and the
