HP StorageWorks P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.1.1 Administrator Guide (web) (TB581-96065, September 2011)

Figure 14 Example of a system configuration for managing copy pairs (configuration in which an SVP
is used as a virtual command device and copy pairs are defined in a configuration definition file)
• Application servers that recognize the P-VOL and S-VOL must be registered in the Device Manager
server.
• The P-VOL and S-VOL are managed by a single Device Manager server.
• From the P-VOL and S-VOL, LUN security must be set for the application server.
The management server does not need to recognize the P-VOL or S-VOL.
• Application servers must recognize the P-VOL and S-VOL.
We recommend that P-VOL and S-VOL be assigned to separate application servers. Note that the
P-VOL and S-VOL must be recognized by at least one application server each.
• The volumes below must be registered in a resource group managed by the user.
The setting is required when managing partitioned resources in P9500.
• P-VOL
• S-VOL
• All pool volumes that make up a pool (when managing Snapshot pairs)
• All journal volumes that make up a journal (when managing Continuous Access Journal pairs)
Note that managing partitioned resources might slow the display for some Replication Manager
GUI operations. If a virtual command device is to be used, we recommend that you allocate the
resource group for each storage system (default resource group) to users.
• Device Manager agent version 7.1 or later must be installed on the pair management server.
For details on the correspondence between copy pair operations and required Device Manager
agent versions, see “Device Manager agent requirements for managing copy pairs” on page 58.
