5 Configuration definitions

This chapter describes the configuration definition procedures for managing replication packages
for multiple data center configurations. First, prepare the hardware and software at each site.
Next, after establishing logical paths and defining the Remote DKC Control Function, register
command devices, and then create a copy group. For details on how to operate the ISPF panels,
see

“Using the ISPF panels” (page 518)

.

Defining a 2DC configuration

This section explains how to define a 2DC configuration with one storage system installed at each
site. For background information about these operations (such as logical path establishment, route
list definition, command device registration, and remote scans), see

“Preparing to use Business

Continuity Manager” (page 114)

. For details on how to perform these operations, see

“Using the

ISPF panels” (page 518)
