operations on the StorageWorks XP12000/XP10000 storage subsystem:

Set/Cancel Command Device. The command device is an LU used exclusively for communicating with
the RAID Manager software on the host to control copy operations

Continuous Access XP. Continuous Access XP allows you to perform synchronous and asynchronous
remote copy operations

Business Copy XP. Business Copy XP allows you to perform local (subsystem-internal) copy operations
that can provide a maximum of nine copies of a primary volume (P-VOL).

Snapshot XP. Snapshot XP allows you to copy logical snapshot data on StorageWorks
XP12000/XP10000 and create a maximum of 64 copies (V-VOLs) of a primary volume (P-VOL). Device
Manager allows you to view pair information for Snapshot XP. You can also use Snapshot XP from the
