Restoring mirrors

Upper-right list: If a master journal group or a restore journal group is selected in the tree, the upper-right list displays a list of mirrors. A mirror is a combination of a master journal group and a restore journal group.

If another journal group is selected in the tree, the upper-list displays information about the selected journal group.

One row in this list represents one mirror (or one journal group).

An operation for splitting the mirror has been started. The status of the journal group will immediately change to Halting.

Note: HaltAccept can indicate status of restore journal groups, but cannot indicate status of master journal groups.

Halting

An operation for splitting or deleting the mirror is in progress. The primary data volume and the

secondary data volume are not synchronized.

 

When you split a mirror, the status will change in the following order: Halting, Halt, Stopping, and finally Stop.

 

When you delete a mirror, the status will change in the following order: Halting, Halt, Stopping, Stop, and

 

finally Initial.
