9 Using Spreadsheets for Universal Replicator for Mainframe

Operations

You can use spreadsheets instead of the Remote Web Console windows. For example, when you
have many Universal Replicator for Mainframe pairs at once, using spreadsheets shortens operation
time compared to using the Remote Web Console interface. You can import the spreadsheets
directly to the storage system using the CFL Extension.

The following figure illustrates the work flow when you use spreadsheets.

Figure 86 Workflow Using Spreadsheets

If an error occurs when verifying or using the spreadsheet, perform the necessary recovery operations
based on the error code. If the pair operations did not work properly, re-create the spreadsheet if
needed, and perform the pair operation again.

This chapter describes the procedures in the bold-outlined, workflow boxes in

Figure 86 (page

. For detailed information about operations not described in this chapter, see the
