HP XP P9000 RAID Manager Reference Guide (T1610-96061, January 2014)

DescriptionOption
Copies difference data retained in the primary volume into the secondary volume, then enables
reading and writing from/to the secondary volume after completion of the copying. (This is the default
option.) For <size>, specify the copy pace for the pairsplit (range = 1 to 15 track extents). If not
specified, the value used for paircreate or pairresync is used.
Business Copy/Snapshot only.-E
Suspends a paired volume forcibly when a failure occurs. Not normally used.
Forcibly specifies a cascading remote copy volume for specified volume pair on local copy
environment. If the -l option is specified, a cascading remote copy volume is split on a local host
-FHORC [MU#]
or -FCA [MU#]
(near site). If the -l option is not specified, a cascading remote copy volume is split on a remote host
(far site). The target remote copy volume must be a P-VOL, or '-R[S][B]' option can be specified on
SVOL.
Forcibly specifies a cascading local copy volume for specified volume pair on remote copy
environment. If the -l option is specified, a cascading local copy volume is split on a local host (near
-FMRCF [MU#]
or -FBC [MU#]
site). If -l option is not specified, a cascading local copy volume is split on a remote host (far site).
The target local copy volume must be a P-VOL, and the -E option cannot be specified.
Business Copy only.-fq <mode>
This option is used to specify the mode whether 'pairsplit' is performed or not as 'QUICK'.
mode = normal'pairsplit' is performed as Non quick mode regardless of setting of $HORCC_SPLT
environment variable and/or the system option mode 122 via SVP.
mode = quick'pairsplit' is performed as Quick Split regardless of setting of $HORCC_SPLT environment
variable and/or the system option mode 122 via SVP.
If this option is not specified, then performing the 'Split' depends on $HORCC_SPLT environment
variable and/or the system option mode setting through the SVP whether the pairsplit operation is
Quick Split or not.
The relationship between '-fq' option and $HORCC_SPLT is as shown below.

Notes:
• The -fq option is also validated on Continuous Access Synchronous-Continuous Access
Synchronous/Business Copy cascading operation using '-FBC [MU#]' option.
• The -fq option is applied for XP12000 Disk Array/XP10000 Disk Array and later. This option is
ignored for XP1024/XP128 Disk Array, in order to maintain compatibility on XP1024/XP128
Disk Array, so that you can use the same script adding this option.
Returned values
The pairsplit command sets the following returned values during exit allowing you to check the
execution results.
Normal termination: 0. When splitting groups, 0 = normal termination for all pairs.
Abnormal termination: other than 0, refer to the error codes for error details.
Error codes
The following table lists and describes the error codes for the pairsplit command. Unrecoverable
errors are fixed and not resolved, even after re-executing the command. If the command failed,
