In the Preview list, select all but one pair in the same mirror, right click the selected pairs,
and then select Delete.

Priority: Allows you to specify the desired priority (1-256) (scheduling order) for the
pair-restoring operations.

The serial number with the LDKC number.

The controller ID with the model name.

The path type.

Resync Mode: Indicates the type of processing after recovery of the pairs.

Normal: Split pair whose status is Suspend will be recovered.

“Requirements for Performing a Delta Resync

Operation” (page 87)

.

Return to standby: The status of pairs will be recovered from Hlde to Hold.

Error Level: Allows you to specify the range used for splitting a pair when a failure occurs.

Group: If a failure occurs with a pair, all pairs in the mirror where the pair belongs will
be split.

Volume: If a failure occurs with a pair, only the pair will be split.

NOTE:

If Range is Group, you cannot change the Error Level option.

Set: Applies the settings to the Preview list in the Pair Operation window (

Releasing a Pair of Data Volumes

The Delete Pair window (

“Delete Pair Window” (page 203)

) allows you to release a pair of data

volumes.
When one journal group uses two mirror IDs, the result of the operation differs as follows according
to the status of the mirror of the specified Universal Replicator for Mainframe pair.

When you specify the mirror of a Universal Replicator for Mainframe pair in Hold, Holding,
or Hlde status, only the Universal Replicator for Mainframe pair of the specified mirror is
deleted.

When you specify the mirror of a Universal Replicator for Mainframe pair that is not in Hold,
Holding, or Hlde status, the Universal Replicator for Mainframe pairs of both mirrors (including
the mirror that you did not specify) will be deleted.

To release one or more pair(s), follow the procedure below. Not only the primary storage system
administrator but also the secondary storage system administrator can perform this operation.
