Data in the secondary site is now reflected on the primary site.
Resuming host operations at the primary site
When Cnt Ac-J pairs are established in the reverse direction between the secondary and primary
sites, you can return host operations to the original configuration. This means resuming host
operations at the primary site and reestablishing the original flow of data from primary to secondary
systems. The following procedure explains how to resume normal operations at the primary site.
1. At both sites, make sure that Cnt Ac-J components are operational.
2. Make sure that pair status of P-VOLs and S-VOLs in all Cnt Ac-J pairs is PAIR.
3. Stop host applications at the secondary site.
4. Issue a request for splitting pairs to master journals (these were originally the restore journals
on the remote site); use the Flush option when splitting pairs. If an error occurs when splitting
pairs, fix the error, resume host operations at the secondary site, and then go back to step 1.
5. If no errors occur, wait until suspension finishes. After suspension finishes, check for an S-VOL
on the local site whose status is not PSUS. If such a pair exists, fix the error and go back to
step 1 after resuming your business task at the secondary site.
6. When all S-VOLs at the primary site are in PSUS status, data in P-VOLs and S-VOLs are the
same. S-VOLs at the primary site are ready for host read/write activity. Resume applications
at the primary site.
7. Run the pairresync -swaps command, which reverses P-VOLs and S-VOLs and resynchronizes
the pairs. The replication is from the primary site to the secondary site (disaster recovery site).
NOTE: When you run the pairresync -swaps command, you can use the -d option to specify
a data volume. However, the command is rejected if the restore journal where the data volume
belongs is in Active, Halting or Stopping status.
Recovery for 3 Cnt Ac-J data centers
Cnt Ac-J copies in two remote sites provides better backup protection, but recovery is somewhat
more complex. The following topics provide instruction for resuming host operations at a backup
site and then restoring the original system and configurations.
Recovery operations for 3 Cnt Ac-J data centers depends on your configuration.
“Recovery for 3 Cnt Ac-J DC cascade configuration” (page 93)
“Recovery for 3 Cnt Ac-J DC multi-target configuration” (page 95)
“Recovery when the primary-intermediate path fails” (page 95)
Use RAID Manager for all procedures.
Recovery for 3 Cnt Ac-J DC cascade configuration
For recovery instructions, see the following:
“Recovery when the primary site fails” (page 93).
“Recovery when the intermediate site fails” (page 94)
For remote site failure, business operations are not effected since the primary and intermediate
sites are still operable. Recover the remote site then set up the cascade pairs again.
Recovery when the primary site fails
Recovery operations consist of the following when a failure occurs in the primary site:
Transfer host operations to the intermediate site.
Restore the primary site failure and restart business operations.
