Table 2 ShadowImage for Mainframe Pair Status (continued)
T-VOL AccessS-VOL AccessHost StatusDescriptionStatus

operation on the pair

has been accepted
normally. The reverse
resyn operation is
executed.

When a
split pair is reverse
resynchronized, the XP
storage system copies
only the T-VOL
differential data to the
S-VOL. The reverse
copy cannot be
performed on
suspended pairs. No
update copy
operations are
performed during
reverse copy or quick
restore.
Read/write-disabledRead/write-enabledS-VOL = PPRI-SUSPThe XP storage system
does not perform
Suspend
T-VOL = PSEC-SUSP
update copy
operations to a
suspended T-VOL. The
storage system marks
the entire S-VOL track
map as differential
data, so the entire
S-VOL is copied to the
T-VOL when the pair
is resumed. Use resync
command to resume a
suspended pair.
Reverse copy and
quick restore cannot
be used to resume
suspended pairs.

It might take time before the copying process starts, depending on the number of pairs and system environment.
CAUTION: When you execute DEVSERVE to a read/write disabled volume in Table 2 (page
21), “INTERVENTION REQUIRED” will be returned. However, when you create pairs with the
volumes online, and when you execute DESERVE to a read/write disabled volume, a normal value
will be returned instead of “INTERVENTION REQUIRED”. Table 3 (page 23) shows the allowable
operations for each pair status.
