  • Quick Split The pair is split and then remaining differential data is copied to the S-VOL in the background. Specify this value when you want to write to or read from the S-VOL immediately after splitting a pair.
  • Steady Split The differential data is copied to the S-VOL and then the pair is split.

    Note: This value is only available if you specify the copy type as TI.

Default: Steady Split

For Thin Image pairs with the snapshot attribute, this item cannot be selected. A hyphen (-) is displayed.
