Determining the Compatible FlashCopy Copy Status

To resynchronize a Compatible FlashCopy linkage copy pair that is in the suspend status, monitor
the completion of the Compatible FlashCopy operation. Use the YKFCSTAT command to acquire
the status of the Continuous Access Synchronous Z P-VOL, Continuous Access Asynchronous P-VOL,
or Continuous Access Journal Z P-VOL that is the copy destination for Compatible FlashCopy, and
determine the copy status.

How to determine the Compatible FlashCopy copy status

Table 103 (page 337)

outlines how to determine the Compatible FlashCopy copy status. After

verifying that Compatible FlashCopy execution has ended normally, run a script that includes the

command and determine the copy status from the value of the REXX variable in the

Compatible FlashCopy information structure.
