SMI-S METHOD
A physical copy can be promoted with the source volume by a CIM client using the
TPD_StorageConfigurationService.ModifySynchronization() method with the
Operation parameter set to
Detach (2). After the a successful Detach operation, the
StorageSynchronized association between the source and target volume is relinquished
and the target volume becomes an independent base volume. The Detach operation is
synchronous and does not require a job.
STATE TRANSITIONS
Table 5-38 shows the values for SyncState and WhenSynced during various stages of
physical copy promotion.
Table 5-38. State Transitions for Physical Copy Promotion
Operation SyncState
Promote in progress Frozen (14)
There are no corresponding SyncState in SMI-S for
detaching, so SyncState remains in Frozen until
operation is complete
