To avoid getting mixed results, run CCI commands on pairs that are in the required status.
The following table shows the results of running commands on pairs depending on their status.

*Terminates normally, regardless of the pair status, when the snapshot tree is specified as the range to be deleted. Legend: Ok: The command ends normally and the task is performed. Np: The command is not rejected and ends normally but the task is not performed. Ab: The command is rejected and ends abnormally. |
Do not specify noread mode (-m noread) for S-VOLs using CCI. If you do, the command ends normally but the noread mode does not take effect.
If a CCI command is rejected and ends abnormally and the host is running the HP-UX operating system, sense bytes (SSB) are output to the CCI error log file. Sense bytes indicate the cause of the error.
For more information about SSB and error causes, see Troubleshooting with Command Control Interface.
