HP XP7 Replication Manager 8.0.0-01 Release Notes

• Restart the XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Common Component service to
reset the tasks to the Failure status.
• Execute tasks again that you need to complete so that they are not executed simultaneously.
For tasks that generated an error:
• Execute tasks again that you need to complete after editing the failed tasks so that they are not
executed simultaneously.
1
Each task internally completes successfully or unsuccessfully, depending on the order of the execution.
2
Multiple tasks that set the copy pair status do not cause this behavior because one of the tasks reserves
the copy pair.
Pair relationships displayed for mainframe volumes in the Storage System view
The entry n/a might be displayed in the LDEV and Storage System columns of the Pair Relationship
display in the Storage System view if the following conditions are met.
Conditions
1. Business Continuity Manager is registered in Replication Manager as an information source.
2. The Business Continuity Manager in the first condition manages a volume of a storage system
that is managed by a local Device Manager.
3. In the Storage System view, you select a volume in a copy pair that is not managed by the Business
Continuity Manager in the first condition and then display pair relationships.
Removing and re-registering a Device Manager server as information source
Do not re-register a Device Manager server as information source for at least 24 hours after its removal
if there is a pair management server managed by the Device Manager server.
Performing advanced operations per copy pair
When you have executed a takeover-recovery (recreate) operation to a copy group including copy
pairs in simplex status per copy pair, update the storage system information after the task is complete.
If you do not update the storage system information, you will be unable to perform any copy pair
operation to copy pairs in simplex status in the target copy group in Change Pair Status Wizard.
If you execute a takeover-recovery (resync) operation per copy pair, the task might generate the
KAVN02841-E (RPM-03351) error. If this error message appears, update the storage system
information. Even if the task generates this error, the operation on the copy pair or copy group completes
correctly.
Performing advanced operations
If you perform an advanced operation to a copy group while updating a storage system containing
a volume in the copy group using a Device Manager server or Refresh Configuration is being executed
for a remote Device Manager, the copy group might not appear in the Replication Manager GUI when
the operation is complete. If this happens, update the information of the storage system to which the
advanced operation was performed.
Managing application replicas
If the following tasks are scheduled, n/a is displayed in the Execution Type column of the Tasks list:
• A task that creates a replica of an application database.
• A task that restores a replica of an application database.
