Figure 14 Quick Restore Operation with or without Swap & Freeze Option

The Quick Restore pairresync operation is used on a pair where the status is split and exchanges data

in the S-VOL and the T-VOL of that pair. If you use Swap & Freeze option when performing the Quick

Restore pairresync operation, the update copy operation does not take place after the Quick Restore

pairresync operation is complete. The data of the S-VOL and the T-VOL is therefore kept exchanged.

If you do not use Swap & Freeze option when performing the Quick Restore pairresync operation, the

update copy operation takes place after the Quick Restore pairresync operation is complete, and the

data in the S-VOL overwrites the data in the T-VOL.

Host I/O Performance Option

The Host I/O Performance option improves host I/O responses over Siz copying processing time. When

the Host I/O Performance option is used, the storage system suppresses execution of Siz copying

processing, and consequently the host I/O responses improve.

NOTE:

When Siz copying processing is suppressed by the Host I/O Performance option, the time taken for

copying increases. If Siz pairs exist, host I/O responses might not be faster. In this case, set the Host

I/O Performance option for Siz as well.

FCv2 Slower Copy1 Option

The FCv2 Slower Copy1 option is used to improve host I/O responses over copying processing time

of FlashCopy Mirror V2 pairs. When the FCv2 Slower Copy1 option is in effect, the number of the

FlashCopy Mirror V2 pairs that can be copied simultaneously is suppressed to half, and consequently

host I/O responses improve.
