Figure 12 Example of a system configuration for managing copy pairs (configuration that uses a pair
management server)
• The server.agent.rm.centralizePairConfiguration property for the Device Manager
agent on the pair management server must be set to enable (default: disable).
• The pair management server and application servers that recognize the P-VOL and S-VOL are re-
gistered in the Device Manager server.
• The P-VOL and S-VOL are managed by a single Device Manager server.
• From the P-VOL and S-VOL, LUN security must be set for the application server.
The pair management server does not need to recognize the P-VOL or S-VOL.
• Application servers must recognize the P-VOL and S-VOL.
We recommend that P-VOL and S-VOL be assigned to separate application servers. Note that the
P-VOL and S-VOL must be recognized by at least one application server each.
• From a command device, LUN security must be set for the pair management server.
To manage copy pairs for Continuous Access or Continuous Access Journal, LUN security must
be set for the host, from the command devices of the storage systems of both the P-VOL and S-VOL.
• The pair management server must recognize a command device.
The command device security must not be used for a command device.
• Device Manager agent must be installed on the pair management server.
For details on the correspondence between copy pair operations and required Device Manager
agent versions, see “Device Manager agent requirements for managing copy pairs” on page 58.
• The volumes below must be registered in a resource group managed by the user.
The setting is required when managing partitioned resources in P9500.
• P-VOL
• S-VOL
