Procedure

  1. Open the History window.

In Command Suite:

  1. On the Resources tab, expand the Storage Systems tree, right-click the target storage system, and click Replication Dashboard.

  1. Click View History > Remote Replication.

In Device Manager - Storage Navigator:

  1. In the Storage Systems tree, click Replication.

  1. From the Actions menu, click Remote Replication > View History.

  1. In Copy Type, select UR. The most recent 8,192 UR operations are listed in chronological order.

The following table lists and describes the operations displayed in the Description column of the History window.

Operation in the Description column

Description

Pair definition

A pair was defined.

Paircreate Start

Creation of the pair was started.

When you specify Entire Copy for the Delta Resync Failure option (Edit Mirror Options window), if delta resync fails, all data in the P-VOL is copied to the S-VOL. When copy is started by delta resync failure, Paircreate Start is displayed. When used with GAD, specifying Entire Copy for Delta Resync Failure is invalid.

Paircreate Complete

Creation of the pair was finished.

Paircreate Complete is displayed when the full P-VOL copy operation is completed for any reason, for example, when the delta resync operation fails and the Delta Resync Failure mirror option is set to Entire Copy. Paircreate Complete is also displayed when the copy operation is complete due to delta resync failure. When used with GAD, specifying Entire Copy for the Delta Resync Failure option is invalid.

Pairresync Start

Restoring of the pair was started.

Pairresync Complete

Restoring of the pair was finished.

Pairsplit-r Start

Splitting (Suspending) of the pair was started.

Pairsplit-r Complete

Splitting (Suspending) of the pair was finished.

Pairsplit-r (Failure)

The pair was split (suspended) because of a failure.

Pairsplit-S Start

Release of the pair was started.

Pairsplit-S Complete

Release of the pair was finished.

Status Change by MCU (SMPL to COPY)

The status of the pair was changed from SMPL to COPY because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (SMPL to PAIR)

The status of the pair was changed from SMPL to PAIR because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (COPY to PAIR)

The status of the pair was changed from COPY to PAIR because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (COPY to PSUS/PSUE)

The status of the pair was changed from COPY to PSUS or PSUE because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (PAIR to PSUS/PSUE)

The status of the pair was changed from PAIR to PSUS or PSUE because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (PAIR to SMPL)

The status of the pair was changed from PAIR to SMPL because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (COPY to SMPL)

The status of the pair was changed from COPY to SMPL because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (PSUS/PSUE to SMPL)

The status of the pair was changed from PSUS or PSUE to SMPL because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by MCU (PSUS/PSUE to COPY)

The status of the pair was changed from PSUS or PSUE to COPY because of an operation from the primary system.

Status Change by RCU (Pairsplit-r Start)

The status of the pair was changed because an operation for splitting a pair started at the secondary system.

Status Change by RCU (Pairsplit-r Complete)

The status of the pair was changed because an operation for splitting a pair finished at the secondary system.

Status Change by RCU (PSUS/PSUE to SMPL; Pairsplit-S Start)

An operation for releasing a pair has been started at the secondary system. The status of the pair will change from PSUS or PSUE to unpaired (SMPL).

Status Change by RCU (COPY to SMPL; Pairsplit-S Start)

An operation for releasing a pair has been started at the secondary system. The status of the pair will change from COPY to unpaired (SMPL).

Status Change by RCU (PAIR to SMPL; Pairsplit-S Start)

An operation for releasing a pair has been started at the secondary system. The status of the pair will change from PAIR to unpaired (SMPL).

Status Change by RCU (Pairsplit-S Complete)

The status of the pair was changed because an operation for releasing a pair finished at the secondary system.

Ready for Delta resync

The status of the pair was changed to standby for delta resync operation.

Ready for Delta resync (Failure)

Failure occurred during the standby for delta resync operation.

Status Change for Delta resync

The status of the P-VOL was changed to HOLD by performing the delta resync operation processing.

Status Change by MCU (SMPL to HOLD)

The status of the pair was changed from unpaired (SMPL) to HOLD by the storage system operation at the primary site.

Status Change by MCU (HOLD to PAIR)

The status of the pair was changed from HOLD to PAIR by the storage system operation at the primary site.

Status Change by MCU (HOLD to COPY)

The status of the pair was changed from HOLD to COPY by the operation from primary system.

Status Change by MCU (HOLD to SMPL)

The status of the pair was changed from HOLD to the unpaired status (SMPL) by the operation from primary system.

Status Change by RCU (HOLD to SMPL; Pairsplit-S Start)

The status of the pair was changed from HOLD to the unpaired status (SMPL) by the operation from secondary system.

Status Change to HOLD

The status of the pair was changed to HOLD by the delta resync process was performed.
