To update an existing copy group definition file:
1. Prepare a copy group definition file and disk configuration definition file.
If the device configuration is changed and the disk configuration definition file differs from
the actual device configuration, scan the volumes to be used and re-create a disk configuration
definition file. Note that the contents of the disk configuration definition file must be consistent
with the copy group configuration.
2. Execute the YKEXPORT command.
A pair information CSV file and EXCTG information CSV file are generated.
3. Download the pair information CSV file and EXCTG information CSV file to the PC.
4. Correct the downloaded pair information CSV file and EXCTG information CSV file.
5. Upload the corrected pair information CSV file and EXCTG information CSV file to the host
on which Business Continuity Manager is running.
6. Execute the YKIMPORT command.
The copy group definition file is updated.
