Requirement for configurationUnsupported configuration
NoneNone
The following virtual storage
machine-related configurations are
unsupported:
Local copy
• A copy pair comprising volumes
from different virtual storage
machines.
• A copy pair comprising virtual
storage machine volumes and
physical storage system
volumes.
• A copy group comprising mul-
tiple copy pairs from different
virtual storage machines.
• Copy pairs from a virtual stor-
age machine and a physical
storage system that coexist in a
copy group.
Remote copy
• A virtual storage machine
volume and physical storage
system volume coexist in a copy
topology, and a copy pair
comprising only physical stor-
age system volumes exists in the
topology.
• A copy pair comprising a virtu-
al storage machine volume and
physical storage system volume
exist in a copy group, and dif-
ferent virtual storage machine
volumes exist in the copy group.
Legend:
*: When primary volumes and secondary volumes in the same copy group belong to different storage
systems, it is necessary to create CTGs with volumes that have the same combination of primary and
secondary storage systems.
Unsupported configurations (mainframe systems)
The following are a list of unsupported mainframe pair configurations. The Pair Configuration Wizard
cannot be initiated to perform operations to modify these configurations. The copy group definition
file should be edited directly because it is impossible to recover from these configurations using
Replication Manager.
