Stop Remote Copy for the Remote Copy volume group on InServ1:
where
<group_name>
is the Remote Copy volume group (for example sync_group_1).
This command creates a snapshot on the system that is the primary server for this volume
group. The snapshot is named
rcpy.<GID>.<VID>.<TID>.<x>
, where
<GID>
is an
internally assigned group ID,
<VID>
is the volume ID,
<TID>
is an internally assigned
target ID, and
<x>
is an integer.
You can use the
copy of
field in
showvv
output to verify that the snapshot belongs to
the correct volume.
The snapshot is copied to tape and then copied to the volumes on system InServ2.
11
Reverse the direction of the volumes on InServ2 to allow the volumes to accept writes:
where
<group_name>
is the name of the secondary volume group (for example
sync_group_1.r96) that accepts writes.
The tape(s) containing data from InServ1 can now be copied to the volumes on InServ2.
12
Restore the original direction of the volumes on InServ2:
where
<group_name>
is the name of the secondary volume group (for example
sync_group_1.r96) whose original direction is restored.
On InServ1:
# stoprcopygroup <group_name>
On InServ2:
# setrcopygroup reverse -local -current -nosnap <group_name>
On InServ2:
# setrcopygroup reverse -local -current -nopromote <group_name>
