Figure 15 Delta Resync configuration with FS

The Cnt Ac-S, Cnt Ac-J, and Cnt Ac-J delta resync pairs must be created before the remote FS
pairs.

You can create a local FS pair before or after the delta resync pairs.

External Storage

You can create Cnt Ac-J pairs using External Storage-configured external volumes.
For more information, see the HP XP7 External Storage for Open and Mainframe Systems User
Guide.

Virtual LUN

Continuous Access Journal supports the Virtual LUN feature, which allows you to configure
custom-size LU that are smaller than standard-size LUs. When custom-size LUs are assigned
to a Continuous Access Journal pair, the S-VOL must have the same capacity as the P-VOL.

To perform Virtual LUN operations on a pair’s P-VOL and S-VOL, the pair must be deleted
and the volumes’ status returned to unpaired.

Auto LUN

You can specify the Continuous Access Journal P-VOL or S-VOL as Auto LUN source volumes.
However, when Cnt Ac-J pair status is COPY or PAIR, do not perform the volume migration
operation; otherwise, the operation is stopped.
Cnt Ac-J pair volumes and journal volumes cannot be used as Auto LUN target volumes.
