HP XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.6.1-00 Administrator Guide (Web Version)

• A host that recognizes the S-VOL

Pair management server conditions:

• Device Manager agent version 7.1 or later must be installed on the pair management server.

• RAID Manager version 01-25-03/01 or later must be installed on the pair management

server.

Copy pair (P-VOL and S-VOL) conditions:

• The P-VOL and S-VOL must be managed by a single management server (Device Manager

server).

• From the P-VOL and S-VOL, LUN security must be set for the host (application server).

The management server does not need to recognize the P-VOL or S-VOL.

• The P-VOL and S-VOL must be recognized by the hosts (application servers).

HP recommends that P-VOL and S-VOL be assigned to separate application servers.

Resource group requirements (when managing partitioned resources in P9500)

• The volumes below must be registered in a resource group managed by the user.

- P-VOL

- S-VOL

- All pool volumes that make up a pool (when managing Snapshot or Fast Snap pairs)

- All journal volumes that make up a journal (when managing Continuous Access Journal pairs)

Note that managing partitioned resources might slow the display for some Replication Manager

GUI operations. If a virtual command device is to be used, HP recommends that you allocate

the resource group for each storage system (default resource group) to users.

CAUTION:

• Before you manipulate the copy pair from the Device Manager GUI or CLI, execute the raidcom

-login command on the management server to authenticate yourself. If the OS of the management

server is Windows, you must be authenticated as the user who executes the Device Manager agent

service (HBsA Service).

• When the Device Manager agent is running, do not perform logout processing of user authentic-

ation for the storage system by directly executing a RAID Manager command. If you do so, pro-

cessing performed from the Device Manager GUI or CLI might not finish properly. If you need to

log out, stop the Device Manager agent service first.

• If the user ID or password for the SVP is changed, the following changes must also be made from

the GUI:

1. From the Edit Storage Systems window of Device Manager, the new user ID or password for

the SVP must be set.

2. From the Configuration Setting window of Replication Manager, the configuration information

of the storage system whose settings were changed must be refreshed.
