pairevtwait

The pairevtwait (pair event waiting) command is used to wait for completion of pair creation and
pair resynchronization and to confirm the status of pair operations. It waits ("sleeps") until the
paired volume status becomes identical to a specified status and then completes. The pairevtwait
command can be used for a paired logical volume or a group of paired volumes. The primary
volume's server is automatically detected by the pairevtwait command, so the server does not need
to be specified in the pairevtwait command parameters.
The pairevtwait command waits until the specified status is established, and terminates abnormally
if an abnormal status is detected. The transition of the paired volume status is judged by the status
of the primary volume. If the pairevtwait command is issued for a group, the command waits until
the status of each volume in the group changes to the specified status. When the pairevtwait
command with the -nowait option is issued for a group, the status is returned if the status of each
volume in the group is identical. For Business Copy pairs, this command must be used to confirm
a pair status transition.
