Recovery Operations
CAUTION: The following operation requires the 3PAR GeoCluster for
Windows resource and, consequently, any dependent resource to be
brought offline.
In this scenario, it is assumed that the only healthy set of data is the one hosted on the
remote site. The first step will be to reintegrate the local Remote Copy group in the
replication process, to ensure data safety. It is performed by setting its role to secondary-
rev.
In order to do so, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure that the Remote Copy system is operational on both site’s InServ s.
2. On the remote InServ, using the CLI, issue the command setrcopygroup recover
<remote Remote Copy group’s name>.
Once this is done and the data is replicated, the data can be considered healthy on both
sites. The next step consists in reversing the replication to its original state, with the local
Remote Copy group reverting to the primary role and the remote Remote Copy group
reverting to the secondary role.
In order to do so, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure that the Remote Copy System is operational and the Remote Copy groups are fully
functional on both sites.
2. On the remote InServ, using the CLI interface, issue the command setrcopygroup
restore <remote Remote Copy group’s name>.
