Virtual Copy.

When a Virtual Copy set is displayed as Mismatched, the Virtual Copy is created on a
different storage system instead of its current connected system. The mismatch may be
caused by an HP 3PAR Peer Motion operation. The delete operation is only allowed to

NOTE:

The Virtual Copy timestamp displayed on the Virtual Copies tab is converted to the

local time zone of the vSphere Client. The Expiry and Retention values on the same display
are set to the time zone of the RMV server.

NOTE:

If the VV(s) used are in a Peer Persistence configuration, local Virtual Copies will be

disabled. Remote Virtual Copies may be created in the Remote Copy tab. Remote Virtual
Copies will create local and remote virtual copies so when failover occurs, a remote virtual
copy (either local or remote) will exist for recovery purposes.
