You can configure remote paths between the two storage systems that are required for a global-active device environment. Because a remote path is required to send data to the connection-destination storage system, you must configure remote paths for both storage systems so they can send data to each other.
- Connect physical paths between the two storage systems that make up the global-active device environment.
- Identify the following:
- Model and serial number of the connection-destination storage system
- ID of the path group
- Port to use on the connection-source storage system and the port of the connection-destination storage system
- IP address and TCP port number of the connection-destination storage system (when using iSCSI for the protocol)
- Make sure that the user performing the procedure is assigned the Storage Administrator (Remote Copy) role.
