Connections Between Secondary Storage Systems
If you use more than one primary storage system and more than one secondary storage system, you must establish connections among the secondary storage systems. To do this, you must configure paths and ports. Also, you must create remote command devices by using Universal Volume Manager.
The following figure is an example of connections among secondary storage systems.
