Executing Ykdelcmd; Command Device Selection Panel - HP StorageWorks P9000 Reference Manual

Even when b is specified for multiple ACs in the Route Status panel and is specified not to display
the Confirm Command Device Build panel, the Confirm Command Device Build panel will be
displayed after an error and before processing the next volume.
NOTE:
After turning power on for the storage system, execute the YKBLDCMD command only once.
If you execute this command more than once, when the command device has already been
registered in storage system, the command device will not be registered. Before executing this
command, make sure that the target command device does not control the storage system.
If a command device is registered, do not delete the path to the storage system (inter-CU
logical path or inter-DKC logical path).
Take the target command device offline before executing the YKBLDCMD command.

Executing YKDELCMD

When d is specified in the AC column in the Route Status panel, the YKDELCMD command is
executed to delete a command device which is registered to the storage system. The Confirm
Command Device Delete panel (see
displayed.
To delete a command device, perform deletion in the reverse order of the route list definition,
starting from the most distant site where a command device has been already registered, progressing
towards the primary site. For details about how to delete a command device, see the HP
StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software Users Guide.
If you specify d for multiple fields in AC in the Route Status panel, processing will be performed
from bottom to top.
Even when d is specified in multiple ACs in the Route Status panel and is specified not to display
the Confirm Command Device Delete panel, the Confirm Command Device Delete panel will be
displayed after an error and before processing the next volume.
NOTE:
If you are using the HP StorageWorks XP1024/XP128 Disk Array, take the target command
device offline before executing the YKDELCMD command.
For the following models, you can execute the YKDELCMD command regardless of whether
the target command device is online or offline:
HP StorageWorks XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array
◦
HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array
◦
◦ HP StorageWorks P9500 Disk Array
When the YKDELCMD command is executed, the copy pair created in the storage system to
which the target command device belongs becomes inoperable. Dissolve the copy pair before
executing the YKDELCMD command.
When the command device on the primary site is shared between the route of Primary to Local
and the route of Primary to Remote in the 3DC Multi-Target configuration route list, the command
device on the primary site must be deleted at the end.
