You can use CCI as well as Device Manager - Storage Navigator (HDvM - SN) to perform pair tasks. When you use CCI, perform tasks by running pairxx commands for pair tasks or CCI commands.
- Do not use both pairxx commands and CCI commands for a pair. For example, if you create a pair using the paircreate command, do not store snapshot data using the raidcom modify snapshot -snapshot_data create command.
- In the future, pairxx commands and raidcom commands will be merged. Use raidcom commands especially when you create a batch job.
The following table shows the pair tasks you can perform, the CCI commands you can use to perform the task, and the HDvM - SN wizard and windows from which to start the task.
