The command device for BCM can be configured only from BCM. To find the command device using Remote Web Console: 1. In Remote Web Console, click File/Reports. The Report Display window displays. 2. Click the LDEV tab. If you are using XP12000 Disk Array/XP10000 Disk Array, only the volumes with a CU: LDEV number between 00: 00 to 3F: FF can be used as command devices. F/M = FB message output control option when operating R-VOLs When the suspension or the release operation is performed from Business Continuity Manager (BCM) to the R-VOL of Continuous Access Synchronous Z pair in the Duplex status, the status of the M-VOL becomes Suspend and the F/M = FB message is output to the host connected to MCU. You can control the output of this message by setting the system option mode 776. However, even if the system option mode 776 is set, the F/M = FB message is output when the pair status becomes Suspend due to the failure. Moreover, the F/M = FB message is not output regardless of the setting of system option mode 776 if PPRC support by host = No is selected on the CU Option dialog box. Table 5 Whether to output the F/M = FB message when operating R-VOLs Cause of the Settings suspension of M-VOL The system option mode 776 is ON The system option mode 776 is OFF PPRC support by host PPRC support by host PPRC support by host PPRC support by host = Yes = No = Yes = No Suspended by the No No Yes No suspension or the release operation from BCM to R-VOLs Suspended by failure Yes No Yes No PPRC specifications, restrictions Most Continuous Access Synchronous Z operations can be performed using PPRC TSO or ICKDSF PPRCOPY commands from the host system console. All P9500 systems support IBM PPRC host software functions. PPRC specifications, restrictions 17
