Open Volume Management
Virtual LUN volumes can be assigned to XP Business Copy pairs, provided that the S-VOL has the
same capacity as the P-VOL. If you need to perform Open Volume Management operations on an
existing XP Business Copy P-VOL or S-VOL, you must delete the pair first to return the volume to
SMPL status.
LUSE volumes can be assigned to XP Business Copy pairs, provided that the P-VOL and S-VOL
have the same LU type and the same number of LDEVs (same size). If you need to perform LUSE
operations on an existing XP Business Copy P-VOL or S-VOL, you must delete the pair first to return
the volume to SMPL status.
Cache Residency Manager
Volumes that have Cache Residency Manager settings can be assigned to XP Business Copy pairs,
and Cache Residency Manager operations can be performed on XP Business Copy P-VOLs and
S-VOLs.
IMPORTANT:
See
for important information about performing quick restore operations
on volumes that have Cache Residency Manager settings.
LUN Manager
LUN Security operations do not affect XP Business Copy operations. Volumes that are under secure
ports and/or that are assigned to WWN groups and/or LUN groups can also be assigned to XP
Business Copy pairs. Volumes that are assigned to XP Business Copy pairs can also be assigned
to secure ports, WWN groups, and/or LUN groups for LUN Security.
XP Business Copy S-VOLs cannot be accessed by any host except when the pair is split.
Data Retention Utility
XP Business Copy can create pairs using volumes to which access attribute is set by Data Retention
Utility. However, you cannot create an XP Business Copy pair specifying the volume with S-VOL
Disable attribute as an S-VOL.
