The Resync Type drop-down list allows you to select the pairresync type for the pairs being

resynchronized (from Normal Copy(P->S), Quick Resync(P->S), Reverse Copy(S->P), or Quick

Restore(S->P)). Remember that you must select either Normal Copy(P->S) or Quick Resync(P->S) if

the selected pair is L2 pair or its status is PSUE. Before selecting Reverse Copy(S->P) or Quick

Restore(S->P), make sure that the pair you are going to select meets the following requirements:

Table 24 Requirements for Reverse Copy(S->P) or Quick Restore(S->P) Pairresync

Operations

Parameter

Requirements

Pair status

The specified pair must be in the PSUS state. All other pairs that share the same

P-VOL as the specified pair must also be in the PSUS or PSUE state.

Pair type

Note that whether you can or can not execute a quick restore command to a pair

that consists of VLL and normal volumes depends on the emulation type of the

volume. For details, see

Table 25

on page 81.

Shared Business

Copy/Continuous

Access volume.

If the Business Copy and Continuous Access pairs share the same volume, and the

Continuous Access pair is not suspended, the reverse and quick restore pairresync

operations cannot be performed.
Note that you cannot perform Quick Restore when Business Copy and Continuous

Access pairs include external volumes.

Shared Business

Copy/Continuous

Access Journal

volume.

If the Business Copy and Continuous Access Journal pairs share the same volume,

and the Continuous Access Journal pair is not suspended, the reverse and quick

restore pairresync operations cannot be performed.
Note that you cannot perform Quick Restore when Business Copy and Continuous

Access Journal pairs include external volumes.

Note:

During the reverse or quick restore pairresync operation, a Continuous Access pair nor a

Continuous Access Journal pair cannot be created. The Continuous Access paircreate command

and the Continuous Access Journal paircreate command will be rejected when the Business Copy

pair status is COPY(RS-R).

The Copy Pace drop-down list allows you to select the copy pace (from Slower, Medium, or Faster)

for all the pairs that you are resynchronizing.

When resynchronizing pairs, you can select the pace for the pairresync operations: slower,

medium, or faster. The slower pace minimizes the impact of Business Copy operations on storage

system I/O performance. The faster pace resynchronizes the pairs as quickly as possible, but it

may affect the storage system I/O performance.

The OK button adds the operation setting displayed in the Pairresync Volume List for

resynchronizing the specified pairs to the Preview List on the Pair Operation window.

Note:

You must click Apply on the Pair Operation window to start the pairresync operation for

the specified pairs.

The Cancel button cancels the operations set in the Pairresync dialog box and closes the dialog

box.
