exceeds the data transfer speed in the normal status mentioned earlier. The maximum number of
paths for each pair of the primary DKC and the secondary DKC is 8.

Configuration where XP12000/XP10000 and XP24000/XP20000 Disk
Arrays are Connected

Universal Replicator for Mainframe can execute remote copy operations in a system configuration
where XP24000/XP20000 and XP12000/XP10000 Disk Arrays are connected. Specifically, the
following configurations are supported.

System configuration for remote copy operation by Universal Replicator for Mainframe from
an XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array to an XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array.

System configuration for remote copy operation by Universal Replicator for Mainframe from
an XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array to an XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array.

The following are described for the connection between an XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array and
an XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array.

Logical storage system (LDKC) that can be connected to an XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array

Volume pair that can create pairs

Connection with an XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array in a 3DC remote copy configuration

Connection with an XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array when using extended consistency groups

Logical Storage System (LDKC) that Can be Connected to an XP12000/XP10000
Disk Array

When you execute remote copy by connecting an XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array with an
XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array, configure a logical path between the LDKC of the
XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array and the XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array. In this case, the logical
path can be configured only between LDKC00 of the XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array and the
XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array. Therefore, you cannot configure a logical path between LDKC01
of an XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array and an XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array (see

“Universal

Replicator for Mainframe Remote Copy Connection Configuration” (page 60)

).

More than one XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array can be connected to LDKC00 of an
XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array.

NOTE:

There is only one LDKC: LDKC00.

The steps to configure a logical path between an XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array and an
XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array is the same as the steps to set logical paths between volumes
of an XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array. For detailed information about the steps to configure
logical paths, see

“Configuring Storage Systems and Logical Paths” (page 137)

.
