Delta resync failure error prevention

If you specify Entire Copy for the Delta Resync Failure option (Edit Mirror Options window) in advance, you can prevent errors from occurring by copying the entire P-VOL data to the secondary volume when the necessary journal data for delta resync is not available. However, the P-VOL data will not be copied to the S-VOL in case of error even if you specify Entire Copy for the Delta Resync Failure option in the following case:

  • The UR delta resync S-VOL is assigned to the SI P-VOL or HTI P-VOL.

In the following case, entire data might be copied from the UR delta resync P-VOL to the S-VOL:

  • Before performing delta resync, the pair status is changed to PSUS by pair split or PSUE by failure while copying the entire data from the P-VOL to the S-VOL as a UR pair.
