Figure 7 Example of Unavailable Alternate Path Setting
Examples of Switching I/O Execution Paths to Alternate Paths
This section describes the case examples of the performance when the I/O execution path is switched to
the alternate path for each path mode as follows:
•
When the path mode is Multi mode.
•
When the path mode is Single mode.
•
When the path mode is Single mode and there is at least one alternate path in the Standby status.
For the description about the path status, see “
Mapping Path Information Dialog Box
•
When the path mode is Multi mode
on page 26 shows an example of the case when the path mode is Multi mode. When
an error occurs in one path, I/Os are executed using the paths other than the error path.
Note:
As you restore the error path, the use of the restored path is automatically resumed.
