For more information on using XP Auto LUN Software, see the HP XP24000/XP20000 Auto LUN Software User's Guide.
2
Create the XP Continuous Access pair after completing the XP Auto LUN operation or stopping the XP Auto LUN operation.
3
The volume cannot be used if the corresponding XP Continuous Access Journal pair belongs to JNL group registered with
the storage system mode 707 being ON.
4
The volume can be used only when you resynchronize an XP Continuous Access pair or perform an RAID Manager
horctakeover operation. In this case, even though the corresponding XP Continuous Access Journal pair belongs to JNL
group registered with storage system mode 707 being ON, the volume can be used.
5
The volume can be used only when you resynchronize an XP Continuous Access pair or perform an RAID Manager
horctakeover operation, except the corresponding XP Continuous Access Journal pair belongs to JNL group registered
with storage system mode 707 being ON.
NOTE: When XP Continuous Access Asynchronous, TrueCopy Asynchronous for Mainframe,
and XP Continuous Access Journal coexist in the same storage system, XP Continuous Access
Asynchronous pairs, TrueCopy for Mainframe pairs, and XP Continuous Access Journal pairs
cannot be mixed in one consistency group. If an XP Continuous Access Asynchronous pair has
been allocated to Consistency group No. 00, TrueCopy for Mainframe Asynchronous pair and
XP Continuous Access Journal pair cannot be allocated to Consistency group No. 00. XP Continuous
Access and TrueCopy for Mainframe share the same cache sidefile area.
XP Business Copy
XP Business Copy volumes can be assigned to XP Continuous Access pairs, and XP Continuous
Access volumes can be assigned to XP Business Copy pairs.
XP Continuous Access and XP Business Copy can be used together in the same storage system and
on the same volumes to provide multiple copies of data at the primary and/or remote sites.
Table 15 (page 41) describes the host pair status reporting for XP Continuous Access volumes, XP
Business Copy volumes, and XP Continuous Access/XP Business Copy shared volumes.
