HP P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.3.1-00 User Guide

TIP:
As of Replication Manager version 6.3, mainframe pair status information can be obtained using
Device Manager (without HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software or
P9000 mainframe agent installed). Detailed pair state information for mainframe pairs in Device
Manager is equivalent to the information for open systems pairs shown in Table 9.

Changing copy pair status
Replication Manager allows you to change the copy pair status in open systems and mainframe
systems. Pair status change operations may be necessary to resume copy operations after recovery
from an error or unexpected pair status changes.
NOTE:
The Change Pair Status Wizard also supports site recovery operations for open systems. See Advanced
pair operations and recovery scenarios on page 229 for more information.
