HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP RAID Manager: User’s Guide

For both –swaps and –swapp, the delta data from the
original S-VOL becomes dominant and is copied to the
original P-VOL, then the P-VOL/S-VOL designations
are swapped.

The application can continue to run at the remote
failover site during this operation. At completion, the
remote failover site will own the P-VOL. When
desired, a very fast horctakeover will allow a fast
failback of the application from the recovery site to the
original site.

The following figure describes the –swap[s|p]
operation. The left side of the diagram shows T0 (time
zero) for both the P-VOL and S-VOL, before command
execution. The right side shows T1, after command
execution.
