Overview of copy solutions

Continuous Access XP Journal

You can use HP StorageWorks Continuous Access XP Journal to create and maintain duplicate copies of all

user data stored on the distant local disk array for data duplication, backup, and disaster recovery

purposes. This enables you to recover valuable data and protect it from the disaster, such as an

earthquake, a fire, or system failure. Continuous Access XP Journal for UNIX® or PC server uses an

asynchronous copy mode to accommodate a wide variety of user requirements and data copy/movement

scenarios. Continuous Access XP Journal provides a superior hardware-based solution for data duplication,

data migration, remote copy, and disaster recovery tasks.

Continuous Access XP Journal operations are nondisruptive and allow the primary data volume of each

Continuous Access XP Journal volume pair to remain online to all hosts for both read and write I/O

operations. Once established, Continuous Access XP Journal continues unattended to provide continuous,

real-time data backup. By establishing primary and secondary data volumes on different disk arrays, you

can perform asynchronous operations remotely. For fibre-channel direct connections, you can perform

Continuous Access XP Journal operations across distances of up to 30 km (18.6 miles) using single-mode

longwave optical fibre cables in a switch configuration.

When Continuous Access XP Journal is used, data to be copied is temporarily stored in a journal volume,

which is a type of logical volume. You can use Continuous Access XP Journal to configure and manage

highly reliable data replication systems using journal volumes to reduce the possibility of copy operations

suspension. Copy operations can be suspended due to restrictions on data transfers from the primary site

to the secondary site.

You can perform Continuous Access XP Journal operations with Business Copy XP operations (see

”Business Copy XP and ShadowImage for z/OS” on page 14) to provide multiple internal copies of

Continuous Access XP Journal volumes. Continuous Access XP Journal also supports the local disk array’s

custom volume and HP Cache LUN XP features, allowing Continuous Access XP Journal to meet a variety of

user needs and facilitates data copying and migration. See ”Combining Continuous Access XP Journal

with other data management functions” on page 53 for more information.

Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console displays detailed Continuous Access XP Journal

information and provides options for configuring and performing Continuous Access XP Journal

operations. Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console communicates with the local disk array’s SVP

through defined TCP/IP connections. If a system failure or disaster occurs at the primary site, Command

View XP or XP Remote Web Console simplifies and expedites disaster recovery procedures.
