SolutionProblem
I/O to the volumes on the
failover system did not stop
before the synchronization.
1. Stop I/O.
2. Manually synchronize the remote-copy pair. On the failover system (SystemB),
enter either of the following commands:
syncrcopy <group_name>
where <group_name> represents the reversed volume group (multi.1.r96)
or:
syncrcopy -pat <pattern>
where -pat <pattern> represents the pattern of reversed volume group
names (multi*)
4. To verify that the volume groups are started, issue the following command on the recovered
system (SystemA):
# showrcopy groups <group_name>
where <group_name> represents the volume group that should be started (multi.1).
SolutionProblem
The volume groups are not
started.
1. On the recovered system, issue either of the following commands:
startrcopygroup <group_name>
or:
startrcopygroup -pat <pattern>
where -pat <pattern> represents the pattern of volume group names (for
example, multi*).
2. Wait for the synchronizations to complete before continuing.
