:
You cannot perform quick pairresync operation on the pair of this volume combination.
Note
*2
:
Since
this combination consumes as same amount of the pool capacity as the normal volume
(that is, P-VOL) capacity, this combination is not recommended.
Note:
Normal volume indicates an internal volume or an external volume that is not specified as an XP
Thin Provisio
ning volume. Note that an external volume means an internal volume that is mapped to an
external volume by External Storage.
For information about the licensed capacity that you need to know if you specify an XP Thin Provisioning
volume as a Business Copy P-VOL or S-VOL, see “License Requirements” on page 40.
VERITAS NetBackup DataCenter
The VERITAS NetBackup DataCenter may be integrated with Business Copy for performing centralized
and automated split mirror, zero-downtown backups. This integration provides automated control of
server-free data movement and allows a point-in-time volume copy to be split and backed up directly
from disk to tape, and then re-synchronized with a primary volume.
Note:
For further information on Business Copy and VERITAS NetBackup DataCenter, contact your HP
service representative.
