When the -essnetcs y parameter is used, the -volgrp parameter specifies the ESSNet Copy Services type volume group that contains the logical volumes that are eligible for controll by Copy Services operations. If the -essnetcs y parameter and the volume group ID are not specified, then all logical volumes are eligible for controll by Copy Services operations.
