Creating a Pair of Data Volumes
Using the Add Pair window, the administrator of the primary storage system must create pairs of a primary data volume and a secondary data volume. When creating a pair, the administrator can specify options for initial copy activities.
Before creating one or more pairs, the administrator must make sure that:
•The volumes to be used as secondary data volumes are offline to all hosts.
•Ports have already been configured (see section Configuring Port Attributes)
