You can also create the FlashCopy mappings in the FlashCopy Mapping window by
clicking New FlashCopy Mapping at the upper left, as shown in Figure 9-30.
Figure 9-30 Create a FlashCopy mapping in the FlashCopy Mappings window
A wizard opens to guide you through the creation of a FlashCopy mapping, and the steps
are the same as creating an advanced FlashCopy mapping using existing target volumes
in the FlashCopy window.
Starting a FlashCopy mapping
Most of the actions of FlashCopy mapping can be taken both in the FlashCopy window or the
FlashCopy Mapping window. For the actions available in both windows, we show, in the
following sections, the steps in the FlashCopy window, although the steps would be the same
if you were to use the FlashCopy Mapping window.
You can start the mapping by selecting the FlashCopy target volume in the FlashCopy
window and selecting the Start option from the Actions drop-down menu (Figure 9-31 on
page 368). The status of the FlashCopy mapping changes from Idle to Copying.
