Pausing Storage Mirroring Execution on the Target
Storage Mirroring servers running version 4.2 or later can pause the execution of operations on the target, even if there are
no active connections to that target. For targets that do have active connections, any operations already in progress are
completed, while any new incoming operations are queued until execution on the target is resumed, at which time the queued
operations are processed.
Pausing through the Management Console
Use either of the following methods, to pause execution on the target:
! Right-click on the left pane of the Management Console, on a target server which you are logged in to, and select Pause
Target.
! Right-click on the Target tab on the right pane of the Management Console, on a connection, and select Pause Target.
If you have an established connection, verify in the
Target Status that the target is Paused. (This field is not updated until
there is source/target activity.)
Pausing through the text clients
Pause the execution of operations on the target by using the pausetarget command on a target that you are logged in to.
Verify that
(Paused) is displayed after the target name on the Text Client screen.
NOTE: The Target Status will identify Pause Pending while it completes the execution of operations that it was
currently processing.
If you have multiple connections to the same target, all connections will be paused when that target is paused.
