Dell PowerVault MD3420 - Manual (Page 395)

NOTE: If the writeConsistency parameter is set to TRUE, the virtual disks must be in a write-
consistency group (or groups). This command suspends all write-consistency groups that contain
the virtual disks. For example, if virtual disks A, B, and C are in a write-consistency group and they
have remote counterparts A’, B’, and C’, the command:
suspend remoteReplication virtualDisk [“A”]
writeConsistency=TRUE
suspends A-A’, B-B’, and C-C’. If you have a write-consistency group 1={A, B, C} and write-
consistency group 2={D, E, F}, the command:
suspend remoteReplication virtualDisks [“A” “D”]
writeConsistency=TRUE
suspends both write-consistency groups.
Suspend Remote Replication Group
Description
This command suspends the synchronization of data on all replicated pairs at the remote replication
group level. This suspend command helps to reduce any performance impact to the host application
that might occur while any changed data on the local storage array is copied to the remote storage array.
Syntax
suspend asyncRemoteReplicationGroup ["asyncRemoteReplicationGroupName"]
Parameter
Parameter Description
asyncRemoteReplicationGroup The name of the remote replication group that you
want to suspend. Enclose the remote replication
group name in square brackets ([ ]). If the remote
replication group name has special characters, you
also must enclose the remote replication group
name in double quotation marks (" ") inside square
brackets. If the remote replication group name
consists only of numbers, such as "1002," you also
must enclose the remote replication group name
in double quotation marks (" ") inside square
brackets.
Suspend SSD Cache
Description
This command stops caching for all virtual disks that are using the SSD cache. Use this command to
temporarily stop caching using the SSD cache. While caching is stopped, host reads are serviced from the
base virtual disks instead of the SSD cache.
