In a 3DC Sync/CAJ replication, the Continuous Access Synchronous replication must use MU# 0
and the Continuous Access Journal replication must use any of the remaining three MU# for remote
replication. Figure 35 (page 98) shows an example of configuring MU numbers in 3DC Sync/CAJ
environment when Delta Resync pair is configured between Site1 and Site3.

In a 3DC CAJ/CAJ Tri-Link configuration using Delta Resync, only mirror unit descriptors “1”, “2”
and “3” must be used for creating device groups. Figure 36 (page 99) shows an example of
configuring MU numbers in 3DC CAJ/CAJ environment when Delta Resync pair is configured
between Site2 and Site3.
