CLI Command Descriptions

306 HP StorageWorks HSG60 and HSG80 Array Controller and Array Controller Software

Command Line Interface Reference Guide

Performs the site failover function in the event the original initiator site is not

operational.

Note: This command works only in a DRM environment and requires an HSG80

controller with ACS V8.8-

P. Use of this command is heavily restricted. Refer to the

latest version of the Operations Guide for the HP StorageWorks Data Replication

Manager application for an explanation and examples of usage.

The SITE_FAILOVER command changes the role of a target unit to an initiator

unit. A remote copy set is created with two members:

■ Original target (which is the new initiator)

■ Original initiator (which is the new target)

Syntax

SITE_FAILOVER remote-node-name\remote-copy-set-name

Parameters

The following parameter supports the SITE_FAILOVER command:

remote-node-name

remote-copy-set-name

The remote-node-name part of the parameter specifies the name of the

controller pair—called a node—receiving the command.

The remote-copy-set-name part of the parameter specifies the name by

which the remote copy set is known. This name must be unique across the

fabric.

Note: Remote copy sets cannot be renamed with the RENAME command. If the wrong

name is entered, the remote copy set must be deleted and then added again.
