If the recovery procedure requires you to delete a pair, recover from a volume failure, and re-create a pair, a failure can occur when re-creating the Thin Image Advanced pair because the capacity of the P-VOL and the S-VOL of the Thin Image Advanced pair do not match. When the Thin Image Advanced pair is used with other replication software, make sure to expand the capacity of the P-VOLs and the S-VOLs for all replication software products that are used together.

Perform these steps immediately before you re-create the Thin Image Advanced pair.

  1. Expand the capacity of volumes that have not been expanded yet.
  2. Ensure that the capacity of the P-VOL and that of the S-VOL in the Thin Image Advanced pair match.
