Creating a Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationship–Filter master VDisk candidates

Use the Filtering Master VDisk Candidates panel in the Creating a Metro or Global Mirror Relationship wizard to specify filter criteria to limit the number of master virtual disk (VDisk) candidates that are displayed.

Introduction

Filtering is useful when you have a large number of VDisks that can be displayed. If you do not specify filter criteria, the SAN Volume Controller default settings are used.

Fields

The following fields are available to filter the VDisk candidate list:

Virtual Disk Name
Enter the full or partial name of the VDisk to select as the master VDisk. If you use a partial VDisk name, you must follow the name with an asterisk (*). For example, if you want to display only those VDisks with a name that starts with the characters Vlun, enter Vlun*.
IO Group Name
Select the I/O group that has the VDisk that you want to designate as the master VDisk.
