Access attribute setting for existing pair volumes
A pair’s status determines the access attributes you can set for existing P-VOLs or S-VOLs. Depending
on the BC pair status, you may not be able to set access attributes for BC P-VOLs and S-VOLs from
the Data Retention Utility. Access attribute settings also depend on whether you set Data Retention
Utility access attributes using RWC or RAID Manager.
The following table shows which attributes you can set depending on the pair status when using
RWC to set access attributes.
