• Designate a group name (Oradb) and a local instance P- VOL a case.
# paircreate -g Oradb -f never -vl
This command creates pairs for all LUs assigned to group Oradb in the configuration definition
file (two pairs for the configuration in above figure).
• Designate a volume name (oradev1) and a local instance P-VOL a case.
# paircreate -g Oradb -d oradev1 -f never -vl
This command creates pairs for all LUs designated as oradev1 in the configuration definition file
(CL1-A,T1,L1 and CL1-D,T2,L1 for the configuration in above figure).
• Designate a group name and display pair status.
# pairdisplay -g Oradb
Group PairVol(L/R) (P,T#,L#), Seq#, LDEV#.. P/S, Status, Fence, Seq#, P-LDEV# M
oradb oradev1(L) (CL1-A, 1,1) 30053 18.. P-VOL COPY NEVER, 30053 19 -
oradb oradev1(R) (CL1-D, 2,1) 30053 19.. S-VOL COPY NEVER, ----- 18 -
oradb oradev2(L) (CL1-A, 1,2) 30053 20.. P-VOL COPY NEVER, 30053 21 -
oradb oradev2(R) (CL1-D, 2,2) 30053 21.. S-VOL COPY NEVER, ----- 20 -
Example of RAID Manager commands with Instance-1 on HOSTA:
• When the command execution environment is not set, set an instance number.
For C shell: # setenv HORCMINST 1
For Windows: set HORCMINST=1
• Designate a group name and a remote instance P-VOL a case.
# paircreate -g Oradb -f never -vr
This command creates pairs for all LU designated as Oradb in the configuration definition file (two
pairs for the configuration in above figure).
• Designate a volume name (oradev1) and a remote instance P-VOL a case.
# paircreate -g Oradb -d oradev1 -f never -vr
This command creates pairs for all LUs designated as oradev1 in the configuration definition file
(CL1-A,T1,L1 and CL1-D,T2,L1 for the configuration in above figure).
• Designate a group name and display pair status.
# pairdisplay -g Oradb
Group PairVol(L/R) (P,T#,L#), Seq#, LDEV#.. P/S, Status, Fence, Seq#, P-LDEV# M
oradb oradev1(L) (CL1-D, 2,1) 30053 19.. S-VOL COPY NEVER , ----- 18 -
oradb oradev1(R) (CL1-A, 1,1) 30053 18.. P-VOL COPY NEVER , 30053 19 -
oradb oradev2(L) (CL1-D, 2,2) 30053 21.. S-VOL COPY NEVER , ----- 20 -
oradb oradev2(R) (CL1-A, 1,2) 30053 20.. P-VOL COPY NEVER , 30053 21 -
The command device is defined using the system raw device name (character-type device file
name). For example, the command devices for the following figures would be:
• HP-UX:
HORCM_CMD of HOSTA = /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1 HORCM_CMD of HOSTB = /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1
HORCM_CMD of HOSTC = /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1 HORCM_CMD of HOSTD = /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1
• Solaris:
HORCM_CMD of HOSTA = /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1s2 HORCM_CMD of HOSTB = /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s2
HORCM_CMD of HOSTC = /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s2 HORCM_CMD of HOSTD = /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s2
