is complete, the pair status changes to split, and you can access the split T-VOL. The
update copy operation is not performed on the pairs which status is split.
• If the HP disk array cannot maintain duplex status for any reason, or if you suspend the
pair, the pair status changes to suspend.
4. When you start a pairresync operation, the pair status changes to resync or resync-r. When
the pairresync operation is complete, the pair status changes to Duplex.
When you specify reverse or quick restore mode for a pairresync operation, the pair status changes
to resync-r (data is copied in the reverse direction from the T-VOL to the S-VOL). For details on the
settings of the pairresync operation, see (page 14).
When you delete a pair, the status of the volumes that were used by that pair changes to Simplex.
You cannot delete the pair which status is V-Split.
Table 2 (page 21) lists and describes the SIz pair status conditions.
