Workflow for defining pairs to consistency groups when the host is down
If you use a CCI command to create a pair that should be a target of the consistency group pair-split and the host is down, the pair might not be defined in the group. The CCI command can be rejected.
If the command is rejected, use the following process to define the pair to the consistency group:
View a list of the consistency groups and locate the consistency group to which you want to assign the pair.
For more information about how to view a list of consistency groups, see Viewing the list of consistency groups.
Create a pair and define it to the consistency group.
For more information about how to create pairs and define them in a consistency groups, see Creating Thin Image pairs.
