HP 3PAR Cluster Extension Software Administrator Guide (5697-2047, June 2012)

Configuring more than one resource in a service or application
To create more than one HP 3PAR Cluster Extension resource in a service or application:
1. Create two (or more) Remote Copy volume groups and create a resource for each Remote
Copy volume group.
2. Make every physical disk resource in the cluster service or application depend on both (all)
resources within the cluster service or application. This ensures that any disk in the cluster
service or application can go online only if both (all) Remote Copy volume groups are failed
over correctly.
