Notes

With the introduction of 3.1.2 Inform OS, user can configure both synchronous replication mode

remote copy volume groups and periodic replication mode remote copy volume groups between

the same pair of HP 3PAR arrays. This can be done by creating multiple targets in the HP 3PAR

arrays. This configuration is not supported by CLX. In CLX configuration, user needs to configure

either synchronous replication mode or the periodic replication mode between the same pair of

HP 3PAR arrays.

Fixes

None.
