Stopping and Restarting Remote Copy
To stop remote copy temporarily, issue the following command:
# stoprcopy -stopgroups
To restart remote copy, issue the following command:
# startrcopy
NOTE: The startrcopy command starts HP 3PAR Remote Copy, but does not restart the volume
groups. To restart all remote-copy volume groups, see “Stopping and Starting Remote-Copy Groups”
(page 93).
Removing Remote Copy Completely
WARNING! Removing the remote-copy setup erases all remote-copy configuration and is not
reversible.
If you decide to use remote copy after removing it completely, you must set up and configure HP
3PAR Remote Copy from the beginning.
To completely remove a remote-copy setup, issue the following command:
# stoprcopy -stopgroups -clear
The stoprcopy -stopgroups -clear command:
• Stops remote copy on all volume groups.
• Deletes all remote-copy configuration data.
• Releases all resources used by remote copy.
• Is not reversible.
Alternately, if the remote-copy volume groups have already been stopped, you can issue the
stoprcopy -clear command to clear or delete the remote-copy configuration.
