Figure 12 Backing up multiple generations
The order in which secondary volumes are used for backups does not change regardless of which
generation you might decide to restore at some point in time.
Figure 13 depicts how generations are
used.
TIP:
The number of generations that Replication Manager can manage depends on the volume replication
function and hardware used, but the same procedures are used for backup and restoration operations.
To determine the number of generations supported according to storage system and copy type, see
“
Copy pair configuration conditions ” on page 147.
