HP XP P9500 Storage - Manual (Page 78)

If you select Force when Range is set to Volume, the other pairs in the same journal are
also suspended.
CAUTION: Please note the following:
◦ Forced deletion in the local system results in data that was not yet sent to the remote
system being deleted.
◦ Forced deletion in the remote system results in data that was not yet restored being
deleted.
◦ If pair status has not changed to Simplex five minutes after you forcibly delete the
pair, delete it again.
◦ Make sure not to recreate the pair in the first five minutes after forcibly deleting it
using the same journals (mirrors), even if pair status is Simplex and journal status is
Initial: in this case pair creation could fail and the pair might suspend.
◦ A time-out error can occur at the time of a forced deletion if I/O is sent to another
pair in the same journal, and the pair’s status is Duplex or Pending.
