4.6
Viewing Synchronization Details
Remote Copy User’s Guide InForm OS Version 2.3.1
To see a list of all tasks on a system that have been active within the last 24 hours, use the
showtask command, as shown in the following example:
In this example, there are four
active tasks currently in progress, one for each primary
volume undergoing initial synchronization after starting the Remote Copy volume group with
the
startrcopygroup command.
The columns in the previous example are identified as follows:
■ Id - The task ID for the displayed task.
■ Type - The task type, which for Remote Copy synchronizations is remote_copy_sync.
Additional task types are described in the InForm OS Administrator’s Guide.
■ Name - The name of the volume being synchronized.
NOTE: With asynchronous periodic mode volume groups, the startrcopygroup
command starts synchronizations only the first time it is issued because
subsequent instances of the command do not initiate resynchronizations. With
synchronous mode volume groups, the
startrcopygroup command prompts
resynchronization each time it is used.
NOTE: For asynchronous periodic synchronization tasks, instead of creating a new
task for each resynchronization, the task is kept active for as long as the group is
started. The task details are updated as resynchronizations occur.
