Combining Hitachi ShadowImage™ for z/OS with Cache Residency Manager

Cache Residency Manager for z/OS volumes can be assigned to Siz pairs, and Cache Residency

Manager for z/OS operations can be performed on existing Siz S-VOLs and T-VOLs.

CAUTION:

See section

Resynchronize Pair Operations (Normal, Quick, Reverse, Quick Restore)

” on page 30

for important information on performing quick restore operations on Cache Residency Manager for

z/OS volumes.

Combining Hitachi ShadowImage™ for z/OS with Hitachi TrueCopy™ for

z/OS (TCz)

TCz volumes can be assigned to Siz pairs, and Siz volumes can be assigned to TCz pairs.

NOTE:

Siz is recommended for intra-storage system copy operations. If Siz is not installed, TCz (synchronous

only) can be used to copy within the same HP StorageWorks XP12000 storage system. This TCz

configuration requires at least one fibre channel interface cable loop (minimum of two is recommended).

Siz and TCz can function together in the same HP StorageWorks XP12000 storage system or XP10000

storage system to provide both internal and remote backup for your important data.

When Siz and TCz pairs share the same volume, to obtain the Siz pair status, query from the host:
• T VOL status of the Siz pair if the Siz S-VOL and TCz M-VOL share the same volume,
• T-VOL status of the Siz pair if the Siz S-VOL and TCz R-VOL share the same volume, and
• S-VOL status of the Siz pair if the Siz T-VOL and TCz M-VOL share the same volume.

Siz supports multiple T-VOLs for each S-VOL. If you issue a pair status query to an Siz S-VOL, the

status for only one Siz pair is reported (the pair with the T-VOL with the lowest LDEV ID). To obtain

the pair status for the Siz pair(s) with the other T-VOL(s), you must direct the host query to the

specific T VOL using the T-VOL’s LDEV ID in the host command. The Siz remote console software

displays the LDEV ID and Siz pair status of all T VOLs associated with an S-VOL.

Reverse copy and quick restore operations can be performed on shared Siz/TCz pairs only

when the TCz pair is suspended.
