Configuration definition for cascading volume pairs

The RAID Manager software (HORCM) is capable of keeping track of up to seven pair associations

per LDEV (1 for Cnt Ac-S/Cnt Ac-J, 3 for Cnt Ac-J, 3 for BC/Snapshot, 1 for Snapshot). By this

management, RAID Manager can be assigned to seven groups per LU that describes seven mirror

descriptors for a configuration definition file.

Figure 25 Mirror descriptors and group assignment

Correspondence of the configuration file and mirror descriptors

The group name and MU# which are described in HORCM_DEV of a configuration definition file

are assigned the corresponding mirror descriptors, as outlined in Table 18 (page 84). “Omission

of MU#” is handled as MU#0, and the specified group is registered to MU#0 on Business Copy

and Continuous Access Synchronous. Also, the MU# that is noted for HORCM_DEV in

Table 18 (page 84) reflects a random numbering sequence (for example, 2, 1, 0).
