Transition from synchronous to asynchronous
The source DR group log cannot be Logging or Merging, and the destination DR group must
be available.
On the source and destination arrays, the disk groups specified for the logs must accommodate
the log's maximum size.
The DR group pair cannot be suspended, failsafe enabled, or performing a full copy. See
Suspension, Failsafe mode, and Full copy.
Transition from asynchronous to synchronous
The DR group pair cannot be suspended.
The DR group log (with basic asynchronous) cannot be logging.
The transition from enhanced asynchronous does not occur until the source DR group log is
run down (merged) to the destination.
During a transition, the log is run down or merged to the destination and host I/O is
automatically throttled. See I/O throttling. The merging may cause an apparent delay in
completing the transition, but is expected behavior.
