•
Activities: The number of volumes that can be copied concurrently during the initial copy and
resynchronization operations.
Figure 67 System Option Window
•
Maximum Initial Copy Activities: Specify the number of volumes that can be copied concurrently
during the initial copy and resynchronization operations. A value within the range of 1 to
128 can be specified. The default setting is 64 volumes.
Maximum Initial Copy Activities can impact the performance of the primary storage system,
depending on the amount of I/O activity and the number of pairs being registered at the same
time. For example, if you set the maximum initial copy activities to 64 volumes and then add
65 pairs at the same time, the primary storage system starts the first 64 pairs and does not
start the 65th pair until one of the other pairs is synchronized. When you change the Maximum
Initial Copy Activities setting, the new setting applies to pairs created after the setting was
changed, not to existing pairs.
