Use the following procedure to add the remote connections between the primary storage system and UR secondary storage system. The following shows an example of command execution for Windows.

Note:
  • When the secondary storage system is VSP 5000 series, specify 5 + serial number (6 digits in total) in CCI.
  • To specify the VSP 5000 series in CCI, enter R900 or XP8.
  • The VSP 5000 series is displayed as R9 in CCI command output.


  1. Add a bi-directional remote connection between the GAD primary storage system and UR secondary storage system. Add a remote connection whose path group ID is 2 from port CL6-A in the primary storage system to port CL6-A in the UR secondary storage system, and add a remote connection whose path group ID is 2 from port CL6-A in the UR secondary storage system to port CL6-A in the primary storage system. After executing the command, confirm that the asynchronous command processing ended normally.
    • Server connected to the primary storage system 
      raidcom add rcu -cu_free 844444 M800 2 -mcu_port CL6-A -rcu_port CL6-A -IH0
raidcom get command_status -IH0
HANDLE	SSB1	SSB2	ERR_CNT	Serial#	Description
00c3	  -	   -	   0	      811111 	-
    • Server connected to the UR secondary storage system 
      raidcom add rcu -cu_free 811111 M800 2 -mcu_port CL6-A -rcu_port CL6-A -IH2
raidcom get command_status -IH2
HANDLE	SSB1	SSB2	ERR_CNT	Serial#	Description
00c3  	-	   -	   0	      844444 	-
    Add the redundant paths between the storage systems using the raidcom add rcu_path command.
  2. Check the settings of the remote connection.
