Modifying the Concurrent Copy timeout value

Complete this task to modify a Concurrent Copy timeout value, which determines how long a volume in a concurrent copy session stays "long busy" (unavailable) before suspending the session.

Concurrent Copy provides another method for creating a point-in-time copy in a zSeries® environment, with the source data available for access and update after the copy operation has been initiated. This option is supported n zSeries environments only.

Perform the following steps to modify the default value (300 seconds) that determines how long a logical volume in a Concurrent Copy session in a specified LSS remains in a long-busy condition before the session is suspended:

  1. In the navigation, select Real-time Manager > Copy Services > Paths.
  2. On the Paths — Main page, select LSS copy options from the Select Action drop-down list. Then click Go. The LSS copy options page is displayed.
  3. From the LSS copy options page, accept or modify the storage complex from the Storage complex drop-down list.
  4. Accept or modify the storage unit from the Storage unit drop-down list.
  5. Accept or modify the selected LSSs from the Select LSS drop-down list. The LSSs that you selected appear in the table. If you select All LSSs, the timeout value applies to all LSSs in the storage unit that you selected on this page.
  6. Accept or modify the Concurrent Copy timeout value by highlighting and typing over the default value (300 seconds).
  7. Click OK.
  8. If the attributes and values are not correct, click Cancel as appropriate to return to the page where you want to make changes and then specify the correct values. Otherwise, click OK.
