2. On the primary system (SystemA), add the pre-existing virtual volume(s) to the newly created
volume group. Enter either:
# admitrcopyvv <VV_name> <group_name> <target_name:sec_VV_name>
<target_name:sec_VV_name>
• <VV_name> - Name of the virtual volume (for example, testvv.A.0) to add to the primary
volume group on the primary system
• <group_name> - Name of the primary volume group (e.g., testgroup) on the primary
system
• <target_name> - Name of the target system (for example, SystemB and SystemC)
• <sec_VV_name> - Name of the corresponding secondary virtual volume on the target
system (in this example, testvv.B.0 and testvv.C.0)
or:
# admitrcopyvv -pat <pattern> <group_name> <target_name:sec_VV_name>
<target_name:sec_VV_name>
• <pattern> - Pattern of virtual volume names (for example, testvv*)
For example:
# admitrcopyvv -pat testvv.A* testgroup SystemB:testvv.B* SystemC:testvv.C*
The admitrcopyvv command:
• Adds the specified virtual volumes (testvv.A.0, testvv.A.1, and testvv.A.2) to the primary
volume group (testgroup) on the primary system (SystemA).
• Adds the specified virtual volumes (testvv.B.0, testvv.B.1, and testvv.B.2 and testvv.C.0,
testvv.C.1, and testvv.C.2) to the corresponding secondary volume groups on the target
systems (SystemB and SystemC).
Because Remote Copy created these secondary volume groups (both named testgroup.r96)
when you created the primary volume group, Remote Copy automatically adds:
◦ testvv.B.0, testvv.B.1, and testvv.B.2 to testgroup.r96 on SystemB
◦ testvv.C.0, testvv.C.1, and testvv.C.2 to testgroup.r96 on SystemC
SolutionProblem
To redo volume groups: 1. Use the removercopygroup command.
2. Repeat the setup from Step 1.
To redo virtual volume placement: 1. Use the dismissrcopyvvcommand.
2. Repeat the setup from Step 2.
For more information on these commands, see “About the Remote Copy
Commands” (page 222).
