9.3.2.1 Starting and Synchronizing Remote Copy Groups
Before using Recovery Manager with Remote Copy, groups in both the primary/local and
secondary/remote InServ Storage Servers should be started and in a synchronized state.
Starting and synchronizing the groups can be achieved by executing the following CLI
commands from the primary/local InServ Storage Server:
■ startrcopygroup <group_name>
where <group_name> is the name of the Remote Copy group which contains all virtual
volumes used by database datafiles and archive log destinations.
Prior to Recovery Manager release 3.0.0, two Remote Copy groups were required if archive log
mode was enabled; one for datafiles and one for archive log destinations. If you wish to use
one group configuration (recommended), where all datafiles and archive log destinations are
within the same Remote Copy group, be sure to synchronize the Remote Copy group after you
reorganize your Remote Copy group members. You can do this by issuing the
syncrcopy <group_name> command.
NOTE: Ensure the target status is Ready.

NOTE: The CLI command showrcopy can be used to check the synchronization
status.
