C Adjusting Volume Capacities for

Pairs

When you create a pair, the capacity of S-VOL must be the same as that of P-VOL. To set a desired

volume to a pair, you may need to adjust the capacity of volume. This section describes the procedure to

adjust the volume capacity.

• When copying data from an external storage system (when you want to use an external volume

as P-VOL)

ForA,B,and Cinthe followingdescription,see Figure 52 on page 133.

To adjust the capacity of the storage system volume to create a pair:

1. Map the external volume (A) as an internal volume (B) of the local storage system. Make sure

that the emulation type of the volume is OPEN-V.

2. Select the storage system volume (C) which has the same capacity as the mapped external

volume (B), or which has the bigger capacity than the mapped external volume (B). The

emulation type of the volume (C) has to be OPEN-V.

3. If you select the storage system volume (C) which has the bigger capacity than the mapped

internal volume (B), make theCVthathas thesamecapacityasthe mappedexternalvolume(B)

StorageWorks XP24000 Virtual LVI/LUN (VLL) and Volume Shredder User’s Guide.

Note:

When you make the CV that has the same capacity as the mapped external volume

(B) using the VLL function, make the capacity of CV according to the Blocks capacity that is

displayed in the Capacity column on the LDEV Information dialog box of External Storage (see

“ Checking the External Volume Details”onpage83).

Note:

To create a Continuous Access pair with a volume of Lightning 9900V series storage

system or Lightning 9900C series storage system, you may not be able to create a CV that has

thesamecapacityasthe mappedexternalvolume(B) sincethe VLL functiondoesnot allowyou

to specify the capacity in Blocks. In this case, you cannot create a Continuous Access pair.

4. Create a pair.
