To perform volume copying, the capacity of the copy source extent must be equal to or larger than the

capacity of the copy target extent. To perform dataset copying, the number of tracks of the copy source

extent and the copy target extent must be the same. Dataset copying allows you to establish up to 16

relationships to the copy source extent.

FlashCopy Mirror Version 2 can perform dataset copying when:
• The position of the copy source extent is different from the position of the copy target extent.
• The volume of the copy source extent is different from the volume of the copy target extent.
• The copy source extent and the copy target extent are in the same volume, provided that they do not

overlap.

• The data in a single source extent is to be copied simultaneously to multiple target extents.
• Volume copying is also performed simultaneously in the same sourced volume.
• Two source extents overlap, or one of them is an inclusive part of the other (see

Figure 50

), provided

that the number of overlapping extents in each overlapped area is not more than 16 extents.

Overlap of Copy Source Extents

FlashCopy Mirror Version 2 cannot perform dataset copying when:
• Any one of the copy target extents is overlapping a copy source or target extent.
• A copy target extent that already has a relationship established is used to establish a new

relationship with a copy source or target extent that overlaps.
