When you are finished changing group options, resync all pairs in the group (pairresync).

When the CT Group Option pane is closed, the list changes to the Consistency Group Settings
Parameter list.

Figure 46 Consistency Group Settings Parameter list

CTG: Consistency group number

M-R Path: Channel type

Time Out (Pending): Copy pending time out (maximum delay) allowed for XP Continuous
Access Async copy (in minutes)

Time Out (Ready): RCU ready timeout (maximum delay) allowed for re-establishing MCU-RCU
communications following MCU power-off (in minutes)

Deleting consistency groups (Delete CT Group)

A consistency group can be deleted only from the MCU and only if the MCU does not contain
P-VOLs still assigned to the group. Deleting a consistency group from an MCU does not affect
consistency groups registered at other MCUs. The RCU automatically deletes a consistency group
when the last volume pair in the group is deleted.

Use the Delete CT Group command to delete the selected group from the current MCU.

1.

Connect to the MCU.

2.

From the Consistency Group tree, click a consistency group mode that includes the consistency
group to be deleted.

3.

From the Consistency Group list, click the consistency groups to be deleted. Select more than
one consistency group with MCU in the This CU column.

4.

Right-click, click CT Group Operation, and click Delete CT Group. The list changes to the
Consistency Group Settings Parameter list. If the Delete CT Group command is not enabled,
the selected group still contains P-VOLs in this MCU.

NOTE:

After being set, options can be modified and canceled (see

“Modifying parameters

and deleting consistency groups” (page 88)

).

5.

Click Apply on the XP Continuous Access main pane to apply the deletion to the disk array.

Asynchronous copy option

When the Async Option command is selected, the Async Option pane appears (see

Figure 47 (page

87)

). Use the Async Option pane to specify XP Continuous Access asynchronous copy option

parameters for the connected disk array. Async options apply to the entire physical control unit,
including all XP Continuous Access P-VOLs and S-VOLs behind the control unit.
