Configuring a Standard Data Replication Manager Solution

Create Switch Zones

Switch zones must now be created and updated. See Chapter 6, “Configuring the Optional

Advanced DRM Solutions,” for more information on creating zones.

I 1. Create a zone on the top fabric that contains port 1 of the top controller. This zone will

later contain initiator host connections as well.

I 2. Add port 2 of the top controller to the top ISL zone created at the target site. This zone

must now contain port 2 of the initiator controller and port 2 of the target controller.

I 3. Create a zone on the bottom fabric that contains port 1 of the bottom controller. This zone

will later contain initiator host connections as well.

I 4. Add port 2 of the bottom controller to the bottom ISL zone created at the target site. This

zone must now contain port 2 of the initiator controller and port 2 of the target controller.

There should now be a total of six zones (three per fabric). There must be two ISL zones (one

per fabric), two initiator host zones (one per fabric), and two target host zones (one per fabric).

Note: If any target hosts will be using nonremote copy sets on the initiator, they must be added to

the zones in step 1 and step 3.

Create Remote Copy Sets

This section explains how to establish remote copy sets (RCSs).

Prepare the Initiator Site

Before creating the RCS, create the connections between the initiator and target sites by

issuing the following CLI command:

ADD REMOTE RCS200 D200 TargetControllerName\D200

Example: add remote rcs200 d200 BuildngB\D200

Note: This command fails (because a unit number must be in the range 0 through 199), and the

following error message is displayed: Initiator unit specified not found. However, it

does properly create and name the connections.

Create Connections from the Target Site

1. Before creating the remote copy set, create the connections between the target and initiator

sites:

ADD REMOTE RCS200 D200 InitiatorControllerName\D200

Example: add remote rcs200 d200 BuildngA\D200

Note: This command fails, and the following error message is displayed: Initiator unit

specified not found. However, it does create and name the connections.
