Example of Continuous Access XP Journal operations

1.

Use External Storage XP to map the volume in the external array as an internal LDEV of the local array,

which is used as the RCU for Continuous Access XP Journal operations.

CAUTION:

Set the IO Suppression mode to Disable.

Select the mapped volume’s emulation type as required. If you select an open-system emulation type

(such as OPEN-V), go to

step 2

. If you select a mainframe-system emulation type (such as 3390-3), go

to

step 3

.

For more information, see

Mapping external LUs (Add LU)

” on page 73.

2.

If you set an open-system emulation type when mapping the volume, the mapped volume’s status

automatically becomes Normal. However, the volume-formatting process is not automatically

executed. To optionally format the mapped volume, use the Custom Volume Size (CVS) function. For

instructions, see the HP StorageWorks LUN Configuration and Security Manager XP user guide for the

XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.
Go to

step 4

.

3.

If you set a mainframe-system emulation type when mapping the volume, the mapped volume’s status

becomes Blockade. To format the volume, use the CVS function. To restore the volume, use the Write

to Control Blocks operation if you mapped the volume for which the data area has already been

zero-formatted on the external array side. For instructions, see the HP StorageWorks LUN

Configuration and Security Manager XP user guide for the XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.
