Notes on managing copy pairs
Note the following when managing copy pairs:
• In the following cases, you need to modify the configuration definition file because copy pairs will
no longer be able to be managed from Device Manager:
• If the IP address of the host was changed when ipaddress is set for the server.horcmcon-
figfile.hostname property in the server.properties file of the Device Manager
server
• If the host name was changed when hostname is set for the server.horcmconfig-
file.hostname property in the server.properties file of the Device Manager server
To modify the configuration definition file, perform the following procedure:
1. Modify the configuration definition file of the local host.
2. Restart the Device Manager agent on the local host.
3. Modify the configuration definition file of the remote host.
4. Refresh the storage systems.
• If you want to use Device Manager to control copy pairs managed by RAID Manager, the config-
uration definition file on the host that manages the P-VOL of the copy pair and the configuration
definition file on the host that manages the S-VOL of the copy pair must have the same group name
and the same pair name. If different names are specified, Device Manager cannot control that
copy pair. In addition, if you want to use a single host to manage multiple copy pairs, make sure
