Notes When Power Saving Feature is Used (For TagmaStore AMS Subsystem,
TagmaStore WMS Subsystem)

When the external disk array is TagmaStore AMS2500, AMS2300, or AMS2100 and the power
saving feature is used, do not access the external volume which is spinning down from the host.
When you access the external volume which is spinning down from the host, the state of the external
volume becomes Blockade.
When the state of the external volume becomes Blockade, the external volume will recover
automatically in several hours. The external volume can be recovered manually by executing the
Check Paths & Restore Vol. command.

Connecting VSP Subsystem

When you connect a VSP subsystem as the external subsystem, the local TagmaStore USP microcode
version must be 50-09-98-00/01 or higher. If the local TagmaStore USP microcode version is less
than 50-09-98-00/01, you cannot connect a VSP subsystem as the external subsystem.
When you connect an VSP subsystem as the external subsystem, you need to set the port to the
host group for the Windows hosts (host mode 0C: Windows, host mode 2C: Windows Extension).
Also, the port attribute must be the target port or the RCU target port.

Path Status and Examples of Recovery Procedure (For VSP Subsystem)

Table 20 shows the examples of the recovery procedure when the path status is not normal. When
the path status is not normal, see the troubleshooting of Universal Volume Manager and this table
to recover the path status. If you cannot restore the path, please call the Support Center.
