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

NOTE:
• For the CLI, you do not need to specify a fence level nor a copy pace. Even if you specify these
items, they are not applied to the configuration definition file.
• You can use the GUI or CLI to check the HORCM instance number, pair group name, and pair
name in a created configuration definition file.
• For a a Business Copy copy pair and a a Snapshot copy pair, the Device Manager sets 0 as
the MU number in the configuration definition file. For Continuous Access, the MU number is
not set because this number is not necessary. The Device Manager also sets 1 as the MU
number in the configuration definition file for Continuous Access Journal copy pairs.
When you use the CLI to create a copy pair by using the created configuration definition file,
you need to set an appropriate value for these values. When you use the GUI to create a copy
pair, these values will be set automatically.
• When you install the Device Manager agent, the server.agent.rm.location property or
the server.agent.rmxp.location property must be configured if the installation drive of
RAID Manager in a Windows environment is different from the installation drive of the Device
Manager agent.
• To avoid malfunctions and to shorten the processing time of Device Manager, exclude (from Device
Manager operations) copy pairs that you do not plan to control from Device Manager. To do this:
1. Check the number of the RAID Manager HORCM instance that is managing the copy pair.
2. For the server.agent.rm.exclusion.instance property of the Device Manager agent,
specify a list of HORCM instances for which you want to prohibit control from Device Manager.
In the list, use a comma (,) to separate entries.
3. Restart the Device Manager agent service (daemon).
• If the host that recognizes the P-VOL is a virtual machine on VMware ESX 4.x or VMware ESXi
4.x, specify true for the server.agent.rm.ignorePairStatus property of that host. In
addition, use a physical machine rather than virtual machine for the host that manages the S-VOL.
If you want to check the latest copy pair information by using the Device Manager GUI or CLI,
refresh the storage systems.
