reactivates remote copy mode after it has been interrupted (for example using
/RESUME-REMOTE-COPY/HOLD-REMOTE-COPY)
.
The command is effective in both synchronous and asynchronous processing modes (COPY-MODE
).
SHC-OSD checks the global and task-specific security settings before this command is executed (see "Security settings of SHC-OSD"). The current security settings can be displayed with /SHOW-SHC-PROCESSING
(see also "SHOW-SHC-PROCESSING Displays settings of SHC-OSD"). They can be changed in the SHC-OSD parameter file (see "Configuration of SHC-OSD") for the next time SHC-OSD is started or with /MODIFY-SHC-PROCESSING
for ongoing operations (see "MODIFY-SHC-PROCESSING Changes settings of SHC-OSD").
For REC on ETERNUS DX/AF
While remote copy mode is interrupted (remote copy status IN-HOLD
), data on the source unit and target unit can be modified. The RESTORE
operand can be used to specify the copy direction for subsequent synchronization of the remote copy pair. WAIT=*UNTIL-SYNCHRONIZATION
ensures that the command waits for synchronization to terminate in both synchronous and asynchronous processing mode.
REC replication can be resumed immediately after use of the target unit has terminated (READY
status). It is not necessary to explicitly detach the target units (NOT-READY
status) using the /SET-REMOTE-COPY-ACCESS
command as for SRDF.
Original units can be reconstructed directly from the target units in synchronous processing mode (RESTORE=*TO-SOURCE
).
Reconstruction is performed internally in SHC-OSD in the following individual steps:
/SWAP-REMOTE-COPY
to swap the source/target relationship/RESUME-REMOTE-COPY
to reconstruct the "new" source on the "new" target/HOLD-REMOTE-COPY
as a prerequisite for another swap/SWAP-REMOTE-COPY
to restore the source/target relationship/RESUME-REMOTE-COPY
to resume the original remote replication
Following reconstruction, the remote copy pair is once again in the ACTIVE
state.
For SRDF on Symmetrix/VMAX3
If data was changed on the source unit or target unit when the remote copy state was IN-HOLD
, the RESTORE
operand can be used to specify the copy direction during subsequent synchronization of the remote copy pair. WAIT=*UNTIL-SYNCHRONIZATION
can be used to specify that the command waits in synchronous processing mode until synchronization is complete and in asynchronous processing mode (SRDF/A) until data consistency is achieved.
The command is executed for source units only if the remote copy pair has the remote copy state IN-HOLD
and access is via the source path (TARGET-ACCESS=*BY-SOURCE
).
Activating remote copy pairs in asynchronous processing mode (SRDF/A) is possible for an entire RA group only. The entry UNIT=*BY-PUBSET
is possible if the volumes of the pubset match the volumes of the RA group exactly.
An RA group can also contain units not defined in BS2000.
To prevent data inconsistency, the command is rejected if it is found that pending writes are noted for the receiving unit or that reconstruction of a local replication (e.g. clone unit) is in progress on the receiving unit.

|
UNIT =
Selects the units by means of a particular VSN (*BY-VOLUME
), a particular catalog ID (*BY-PUBSET
), by means of the serial number and the internal number of the logical volume in the storage system (*BY-SYMMETRIX/*BY-STORAGE
), or directly by means of the logical volume's mnemonic device name.
If VOLUME
or PUBSET
is specified, the action is automatically performed for the correct unit (i.e. the source unit). If a mnemonic name or the internal name in the storage system (*BY-SYMMETRIX
, *BY-STORAGE
) was specified, only source units are permissible.
UNIT = *BY-VOLUME(...)
Selects the units by means of a particular VSN.
VOLUME = <vsn 1..6>
Specifies the volume’s VSN.
UNIT = *BY-PUBSET(...)
Selects units by means of a pubset ID or volume set ID. The pubset is protected against reconfiguration during command processing.
PUBSET = <cat-id 1..4>
Specifies the pubset ID or volume set ID.
RENAME-PUBSET =
Selects the pubset ID to which the source units of the pubset are to be renamed after /RESUME-REMOTE-COPY
when RESTORE=*TO-SOURCE
is specified.
RENAME-PUBSET = *NO
The pubset is not renamed, i.e. the catalog ID of the target units remains unchanged.
RENAME-PUBSET = *SAME
The pubset is assigned the catalog ID of the original before /RESUME-REMOTE-COPY
.
RENAME-PUBSET = <cat-id 1..4>
Explicit specification of the new pubset ID.
UNIT = *BY-SYMMETRIX(...)
Only relevant for Symmetrix/VMAX3.
Selects the units by means of the serial number of the storage system and the internal number of the logical volume.
SERIAL-NUMBER = <alphanum-name 3..12>
Specifies the serial number of the storage system (make sure it is unique!).
LOGICAL-VOLUME = *ALL-SOURCE-UNITS(...)
Selects the source units of the storage system.
SELECT = *ANY
Selects all source units of the specified storage system.
SELECT = *ALL-DEFINED
Selects all source units (generated in BS2000) of the specified storage system.
SELECT = *ATTACHED
Selects all source units (attached in BS2000) of the specified storage system.
RA-GROUP = *ANY
Selects all RA groups.
RA-GROUP = <integer 1..250>
Selects all source units of an RA group.
LOGICAL-VOLUME = <x-text 1..4>
Specifies the internal number of the logical volume in the storage system.
UNIT = *BY-STORAGE(...)
Only relevant for ETERNUS DX/AF.
Selects the units by means of the serial number and the internal number of the logical volume in the storage system.
SERIAL-NUMBER = <alphanum-name 3..14>
Specifies the serial number of the storage system (make sure it is unique!).
LOGICAL-VOLUME = *ALL-SOURCE-UNITS(...)
Selects the source units of the specified storage system.
SELECT = *ANY
Selects all source units of the specified storage system.
SELECT = *ALL-DEFINED
Selects all source units (generated in BS2000) of the specified storage system.
SELECT = *ATTACHED
Selects all source units (attached in BS2000) of the specified storage system.
LOGICAL-VOLUME = <x-text 1..4>
Specifies the internal number of the logical volume in the storage system.
UNIT = list-poss(256): <alphanum-name 2..2> / <x-text 4..4>
Selects the unit by means of the mnemonic device name of the logical volume.
RESTORE =
Specifies the copy direction when data on the source unit and target unit differs.
RESTORE = *FROM-SOURCE
Copies from the source unit to the target unit.
RESTORE = *TO-SOURCE(...)
Copies from the target unit to the source unit.
CONCURRENT-TARGET =
Determines the behavior if the source unit has a second target unit with the ACTIVE
state.
CONCURRENT-TARGET = *REJECT-IF-ACTIVE
The command is rejected if the source unit has a second target unit with the ACTIVE
state.
CONCURRENT-TARGET = *ALLOW
If the source unit has a second target unit with the *ACTIVE
state, the latter is also updated.
To ensure data consistency, the copy direction *TO-SOURCE
is accepted only if no local pending writes are noted on the target unit.
The source units must not be allocated (export pubset).*TO-SOURCE
is only possible for synchronous REC, also when WAIT=*UNTIL-SYNCHRONIZATION
is specified.
WAIT =
Specifies whether or not the command is to wait until synchronization is complete.
WAIT = *STD WAIT=*UNTIL-SYNCHRONIZATION
is used for ETERNUS DX/AF. WAIT=*NO
is used for Symmetrix/VMAX3.
WAIT = *NO
The command does not wait until synchronization is complete.
WAIT = *UNTIL-SYNCHRONIZATION
The command waits until synchronization is complete or, with SRDF/A, until a consistent state is reached.WAIT=*UNTIL-SYNCHRONIZATION
simplifies the programming of test procedures for recovery because extensive queries regarding the synchronization progress of the remote copy pair are unnecessary. Waiting can be aborted in dialog mode by hitting the K2 key.
TARGET-UNIT =
Controls selection of the target unit for concurrent remote copy.
TARGET-UNIT = *UNIQUE
Remote copy mode is restarted for the one existing target unit.
TARGET-UNIT = *ALL
Remote copy mode is restarted for all target units.

TARGET-SERIAL-NUMBER = <alphanum-name 3..14>
Specifies the serial number of the storage system (make sure it is unique!) with the target unit.
Command processing
The following messages are output to SYSOUT for each remote copy pair and distributed via routing code 0
, i.e. they are logged in the CONSLOG
file only. You will find detailed information on the CONSLOG
file (log file) in the “Introduction to System Administration” manual [5].
