Use either of the following methods to specify P-VOL and S-VOL volumes:
• Device number
• Storage system serial number, CU number, and CCA number
If both methods are used, the device number specification takes precedence.
3
For only part of the specified number, the volumes that exist at consecutive addresses are defined as a copy pairs. The
definition depends on the P-VOL and S-VOL specification method:
• When volumes are specified by the device number
Volumes with consecutive device numbers are defined as a copy pair.
• When volumes are specified by the storage system serial, CU, and CCA numbers
Volumes with consecutive CU and CCA numbers are defined as a copy pair.
You must specify 1 even if you do not define copy pairs repeatedly. The following example shows
the copy group definition file that is displayed on the ISPF panel when the following information
is specified:
• PDEVN: 7311
• SDEVN: 2A01
• Number-Of-Pairs: 3
