Pair tables contain information that is required to manage HTI pairs. Each HTI pair requires one pair table. The maximum number of pair tables is the maximum number of pairs that can be used in a storage system.

The number of HTI pairs that you can create is maximum-number-of-pair-tables-per-storage-system - (number-of-existing-Thin Image-pairs + number-of-existing-Thin Image Advanced-pairs).

Maximum number of pair tables:
  • VSP E series: 1,048,575
  • VSP 5000 series: 1,048,575

To view the number of existing HTI pairs in HDvM - SN, use the Local Replication window. In CCI, use the raidcom get snapshot command. For details, see Viewing local replication summary information.
