Description

  • LDEV Name: The P-VOL's LDEV name.
  • (VSP 5000 series) Emulation Type: The P-VOL's emulation type.
  • (VSP E series) Attribute: The P-VOL's attribute.
  • Capacity: The P-VOL's volume capacity
  • CLPR: The P-VOL's CLPR ID.

Copy Type

The types of pairs.

Values:

  • SI-L1: SI L1
  • SI-L2: SI L2
  • (VSP 5000 series) SIMF: SIz
  • TI: HTI

Snapshot Group

HTI pairs only.

The snapshot group name.

For non-HTI pairs, a hyphen is displayed.

If the pair is a Thin Image pair and the snapshot group is not set, a blank appears.

Status

  • (VSP 5000 series) Emulation Type: The S-VOL's emulation type.
  • (VSP E series) Attribute: The S-VOL's attribute.
  • Capacity: The S-VOL's volume capacity
  • CLPR: The S-VOL's CLPR ID

Pool Name (ID)

HTI pairs only.

The pool name and identifier.

Mirror Unit

The mirror unit number.

Cascade

Type

The pair type.

Snapshot: The pair has the snapshot attribute.

Clone: The pair has the clone attribute or diff clone attribute. In the TI Pairs window, if Diff Compare Volume displays the LDEV ID, the diff clone attribute is set for the pair. If Diff Compare Volume displays a hyphen (-), the clone attribute is set for the pair.

For non-HTI pairs, a hyphen is displayed.

Topology ID The topology ID, which indicates the layer of the pair based on the mirror unit. The topology ID consists of the LDEV ID of the volume (root volume for Thin Image pairs), which is the base of the target pair, and the mirror unit number.

Split Type list

The split type.

Values:

  • Quick Split: The pair is split, and then the data is copied so that the S-VOL is immediately available for read and write I/O. Any remaining differential data is copied to the S-VOL in the background.

    For HTI pairs, this value is not shown.

  • Steady Split: Splits the pair after all of the differential data is copied.

Copy Pace list

SI and SIz pairs only.

The system option that determines the rate at which you want the storage system to copy data.

Values:

  • Slower: Improved host server I/O performance but slower processing speed.
  • Medium: Average processing speed and host server I/O performance.
  • Faster: Faster processing speed but slower host server I/O performance.
For HTI pairs with the snapshot attribute, you cannot select the copy pace and a hyphen appears.
