NOTE:

The term "storage system failure, with information lost from memory," indicates a failure

that causes the loss of information in memory. In such a failure, the copy pair information and the
data are completely lost, so the hardware information must be reconfigured.

x Cnt Ac-J Z) configurations.

The figures in the procedures in this section use the following legend.

The bullet lists under the figures in the procedures show the commands that must be executed.
