HP 3PAR CIM API Programming Reference (OS 3.1.2 MU2) (QL226-97015, June 2013)

SyncedElement. Similar to remote StorageVolume, this ReplicationEntity cannot be retrieved via
EnumerateInstances/EnumerateInstanceNames.GetInstance.
ReplicationEntity cannot be discovered via EnumerateInstances, EnumerateInstanceNames nor
GetInstance. It will appear as an instance as a result of an Associators request, and will have the
following value:
Table 111 Relevant Properties of TPD_ReplicationEntity
DescriptionProperty
HP_3PAR:<remote volume name>InstanceID
StorageVolume (4)Type
Always FALSE, which means that ReplicationEntity will disappear
if link is back up and copy is successful.
Persistent
Remote volume nameEntityID
NULLOtherTypeDescription
Since there is no full-blown support for ReplicationEntity, in the replication service capabilities the
SupportedFeatures property will still include “Requires full discovery of target ComputerSystem“
which indicates that the service does not support undiscovered resources.
TPD_RemoteReplicationGroup
This corresponds to the remote replication group, sub-classed from CIM_ReplicationGroup.
Table 112 Relevant Properties of TPD_RemoteReplicationGroup
DescriptionProperty
HP_3PAR:<remote volume name>InstanceID
Name of the rcopy groupElementName
Always TRUE.Persistent
If true, group will be deleted when the last element is removed.
This is always FALSE since an rcopy group can be empty.
DeleteOnEmptyElement
If true, group will be deleted when the group is no longer
associated with another group. This is always FALSE.
DeleteOnUnassociated
TPD_RemoteGroupSynchronized
This is the synchronization association between the remote copy group pairs, sub-classed from
CIM_GroupSynchronized. The RemoteReplicationGroup of the peer system cannot be retrieved
via EnumerateInstances, EnumerateInstanceNames or GetInstance. The object path of the
RemoteReplicationGroup of the peer system will not have a valid hostname, as neither the hostname
nor IP address of the peer system is known to the local provider; instead, target name of the peer
system will be used. Target name is an arbitrary name given to the peer system when a user creates
a remote copy target. Consult Remote Copy Users Guide for details.
Table 113 Relevant Properties of RemoteGroupSynchronized
DescriptionProperty
Source RemoteReplicationGroup (rm_natural is TRUE); the
„natural source group will remain as the SystemElement even
after a fail over.
SystemElement
Target RemoteReplicationGroup (rm_natural is FALSE); the
„natural target group will remain as the SyncedElement even
after a fail over.
