Cautions Switching Off the Power Supply Using Compatible Mirroring for IBM FlashCopy Ver. 2
The following explains what happens if you power off the disk array during FlashCopy Mirror Version 2

operations and later power on the disk array. What happens depends on the status of the shared memory

when powering on the disk array:

If data on the shared memory is not volatilized and not lost:
The status before powering off will be maintained. As for the relationships in COPY mode, background

copying will automatically restart when you power on the disk array.

If data on the shared memory is volatilized and lost:
If relationships exist before powering off the disk array, the T-VOLs will become blocked and

inaccessible from hosts when you power on the disk array. Thus, the host does not access the

inconsistent data in the T-VOLs. To restore the T-VOLs to normal status, force restoration of LDEVs.

NOTE:

If the T-VOL is an external volume, the disk subsystem may start normally and the T-VOL may not

become blocked even if data on the shared memory is lost. However, although the disk subsystem starts

normally, it is feared that data in the T-VOL is not normal. Therefore, you should delete data in the T-VOL or

initialize the T-VOL.

First complete the processing of At-Time Split function, and then switch off the power supply.
