NOTE:
The offline primary volume remains designated a Primary Volume.
To change the primary volume back to the original primary volume
1.
On the primary system:
a. Create a standard snapshot (page 69) to preserve the primary volume's last data level.
b. In the Configuration View panel, right-click the primary volume and select Provisioning > Set
Replication Primary Volume.
c. In the main panel, select the primary volume in the list.
d. Click Set Replication Primary Volume. A message indicates whether the task succeeded or failed.
2.
On the secondary system:
a. Replicate the secondary volume (page 1 1 1) to synchronize at the last valid common sync point. This
will replicate any data changes made in the secondary volume back to the original primary volume.
NOTE:
them to verify any discrepancies.
b. In the Configuration View panel, right-click the secondary volume and select Provisioning > Set
Replication Primary Volume.
c. In the main panel, select the primary volume in the list.
d. Click Set Replication Primary Volume. A message indicates whether the task succeeded or failed.
3.
On the primary system:
a. In the Configuration View panel, right-click the primary volume and select Provisioning > Set
Replication Primary Volume.
b. In the main panel, select the primary volume in the list.
c. Click Set Replication Primary Volume. A message indicates whether the task succeeded or failed. If
it succeeded, in the Configuration View panel the primary volume is designated the Primary Volume
and the secondary volume is re-designated the Secondary Volume.
Viewing replication properties, addresses, and images for a volume
In the Configuration View panel, right-click a volume and select View > Overview. The Volume Overview
table shows:
•
As described in
volume; the quantity of mappings for the volume; and the quantity of task schedules for the volume
•
The quantity of replication addresses for the volume
•

Replication properties
For a volume that is not a secondary volume, the Replication Properties for Volume table also shows:
•
Name. Replication volume name.
•
Serial Number. Replication volume serial number.
•
Status. Replication volume status: Replicating, Suspended, Initializing, Inconsistent, Offline, Online, or
Establishing proxy. After a secondary volume is reattached it has "Establishing proxy" status while
establishing a proxy connection with the remote (primary) system in preparation for replication.
•
Status-Reason. More information about the status value, or N/A for Online status.
•
Monitor. Interval in seconds at which the primary volume should query the secondary volume.
•
Location. Local or Remote.
