You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to start and
stop Metro
Mirror or Global Mirror consistency-group
copy processes.
To start and stop Metro
Mirror or Global Mirror consistency-group
copy processes, perform these steps:
- To start a Metro
Mirror or Global Mirror consistency-group
copy process, set the direction of copy if it is undefined
and optionally mark the secondary VDisks of the consistency group
as clean. Run the svctask startrcconsistgrp command. For example, enter:
svctask startrcconsistgrp rc_consist_group_id
Where rc_consist_group_id is the
ID of the consistency group to start processing.
- To stop the copy process for a Metro
Mirror or Global Mirror consistency
group, run the svctask stoprcconsistgrp command.
For example, enter:
svctask stoprcconsistgrp rc_consist_group_id
Where rc_consist_group_id is the
ID of the consistency group that you want to stop processing.
If
the group is in a consistent state, you can also use this command
to enable write access to the secondary virtual disks (VDisks) in
the group.
