Monitoring pair activity, status, license capacity
Monitoring the Universal Replicator system and licensed capacity is essential for maintaining your pairs.
Each operation requires a specific status or statuses. Before performing a pair operation, check the pair’s status.
Pair status changes when an operation is performed. Check status to make sure that pairs are operating correctly and that data is updated from P-VOLs to S-VOLs, and that differential data is managed appropriately.
Frequent monitoring of the system is optional but recommended. You can set up automatic e-mail notification from the Device Manager - Storage Navigator for problems found during monitoring.
To monitor pair activity, license capacity
Open the Remote Replication window:
In Hitachi Command Suite: On the Resources tab, expand the Storage Systems tree, right-click the target storage system, and click Remote Replication.
In Device Manager - Storage Navigator: In the Storage Systems tree, click Replication > Remote Replication.
Select the UR Pairs tab, and then select the pair that you want to monitor.
From the Actions menu, click Remote Replication > View Pair Properties.
In the View Pair Properties window, you can display only the columns you want to see by clicking Filter.
To review license capacity, see the Summary area in the Replication window.
