HP StorageWorks P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.1.1 Administrator Guide (web) (TB581-96065, September 2011)

• Either of the conditions below is satisfied on the management server.
• Neither the P-VOL nor S-VOL is assigned.
If you want to create a copy pair from the management server, specify enable for the serv-
er.agent.rm.centralizePairConfiguration property of the Device Manager agent
on the management server (default: disable).
• The server.agent.rm.ignorePairStatus property for the Device Manager agent on
the management server must be set to true.
If you want to check the latest copy pair information by using the Device Manager GUI or CLI,
refresh the storage systems by using the following methods:
GUI: In the storage system view, select the target storage system, click the Refresh Storage
System button.
CLI: Execute the AddStorageArray command for the target storage system.
• The Replication Manager server and the Device Manager server can communicate using SSL.
CAUTION:
• Do not install Replication Manager Application Agent on the management server.
• While copy pair operations are performed from the Device Manager GUI or CLI, do not perform
logout processing of user authentication for the storage system by directly executing a RAID
Manager command. If you do so, processing performed from the Device Manager GUI or CLI
might not finish properly. If you need to log out, stop the Device Manager agent service first.
• If the user ID or password for the SVP is changed, the following changes must also be made from
the GUI:
1. From the Edit Storage Systems window of Device Manager, the new user ID or password for
the SVP must be set.
2. From the Configuration Setting window of Replication Manager, the configuration information
of the storage system whose settings were changed must be refreshed.
