3DC multi-target
configuration
A configuration in which, in addition to the local site, a connection is established
between a nearby remote site and a distant remote site and Continuous Access
Synchronous and Continuous Access Journal are used to copy storage system
volumes among the three sites (called data centers). Such a configuration
provides support for disaster recovery through the use of data at the distant
remote site.
If the delta resync function is used between the nearby and distant remote sites,
journal-copying of only the minimum data required is performed following a
failure, which minimizes the recovery time.
Application Agent Software that allows Replication Manager to perform replica operations on
database and backup servers where Application Agent is installed.
application replica A database backup managed as a series of secondary volumes that can be
created manually or on a scheduled basis. Replicas can be mounted and dumped
to tape using scripts executed through Replication Manager.

Business Copy Software used to duplicate volumes in a single storage system. Business Copy
duplicates all data on a volume. The fact that Business Copy duplicates all data
on a volume means that the data can be restored, even if the primary volume
has been damaged or destroyed. For more information, see the Business Copy
manuals.
cascade structure A structure of consecutive copy pairs. In a cascade structure, the secondary
volume of one copy pair is the primary volume of another copy pair. This volume
is called a secondary/primary volume (SP-VOL).
cluster

In a Replication Manager operating environment, the term cluster
configuration refers to a configuration that consists of an executing node
and a standby node, each of which includes a duplicate management server.
