Unsupported configurations (open systems)
The following is a list of unsupported open systems pair configurations. The Pair Configuration Wizard
cannot be initiated to perform operations to modify these configurations. The copy group definition
file should either be edited directly, or use storage management software other than P9000 Command
View AE Suite (such as Remote Web Console) to define the configuration. It is impossible to recover
from these configurations using Replication Manager.
