Starting and stopping Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationships using the CLI

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to start and stop stand-alone Metro Mirror and Global Mirror relationships. Relationships that are members of consistency groups must be started and stopped using the consistency group CLI commands.

To start and stop Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationships, perform these steps:

  1. To start a Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationship, run the svctask startrcrelationship command. For example, enter:
    svctask startrcrelationship rc_rel_id

    Where rc_rel_id is the ID of the relationship that you want to start in a stand-alone relationship.

  2. To stop a Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationship, run the svctask stoprcrelationship command. This command applies to a stand-alone relationship.

    For example, enter:

    svctask stoprcrelationship rc_rel_id

    Where rc_rel_id is the ID of the stand-alone relationship that you want to stop mirroring I/O.
