ShadowImage Options

By using the SI390 options, you can extend the standard SI390 operations such as the add pair and

resync pair operations. The following table shows the options that are currently available.

NOTE:

Available option types depend on the XP1024/XP128/XP12000/XP10000/SVS 200 settings.

Swap&Freeze Option

The Swap&Freeze option allows the S-VOLs of an SI390 pair to remain unchanged after the quick restore

operation. If the quick restore operation is performed on an SI390 pair with the Swap&Freeze option,

update copy operations are suppressed, and thus are not performed for pairs in the duplex status after the

quick restore operation. If the quick restore operation is performed without the Swap&Freeze option, the

S-VOL and T-VOL are resynchronized when update copy operations are performed for pairs in the duplex

status.

NOTE:

Verify that the Swap&Freeze option remains in effect until the pair status becomes duplex after the

quick restore operation.

The following figure shows the state of the T-VOL after the quick restore operation with or without the

Swap&Freeze option.
