Hitachi TrueCopy for z/OS user guide 121
NOTE: TC390 and SI390 can function together in the same XP12000/XP10000 to provide both internal
and remote backup for your data. If you are planning to combine TC390 and SI390, read the important
configuration information inCombining TrueCopy with other data management operations” on page 57.
If you will be using the TC390 software to perform remote copy operations, the management station must
be LAN-attached to the MCU of each TC390 volume pair. You should also install and attach a
management station to the RCUs at your remote site. If you will be using PPRC commands instead of XP
Command View Advanced Edition Software or XP Remote Web Console, contact your HP account support
representative for information on TC390 configuration services. The following TC390 operations cannot be
performed using PPRC commands: asynchronous options, group addition/deletion, and group options. For
more information on using PPRC commands with the XP12000/XP10000, see ”Using PPRC commands for
TrueCopy” on page 157.
