O
Open/MF A consistency group that uses the Open/MF Consistency Preservation Function. This group consists
consistency group of both open system copy groups and mainframe system copy groups, and can suspend them
simultaneously.
operational testing A test of the remote site when copy pairs spanning the primary site and one or more other sites
are cut off, to check whether operations are being performed properly, such as during a failure.
Once the test is completed, the primary site and the remote site need to be synchronized again.
P
P-VOL Primary volume.
pair information A CSV file in which copy information in a copy group container is described.
CSV file
pair volume A pair (P-VOL and S-VOL).
path set A set of inter-control unit paths or inter-disk controller logical paths. The unit for controlling logical
paths.
PathID Identifier for the inter-disk controller logical paths established from the same DKC. One PathID
can specify up to eight physical paths. Currently, only PathID=00 is available.
physical DKC serial A number assigned to each storage system.
number
physical path A path connected via a FC interface cable or serial interface (ESCON) cable, to connect initiator
ports and target ports.
planned outage Planned stoppage of an operating site, such as for maintenance. This is used to minimize
application stoppage by migrating the application to one or more sites. After the stopped site
has been recovered, any content that was updated on one or more sites needs to be applied.
PPRC An IBM backup product that executes synchronous copies without passing through the host.
PPRC copy pair for A PPRC Cnt Ac-S copy pair for which HyperSwaps can be performed. TPC-R can be used to
which HyperSwaps create these copy pairs. You can define a Cnt Ac-S copy pair as a Cnt Ac-S copy pair with the
are enabled HyperSwap attribute by using the YKH2B command in Business Continuity Manager, making it
possible to use Business Continuity Manager to monitor or dissolve the Cnt Ac-S copy pair.
primary DAD Device address domain that contains the P-VOLs in a copy group.
primary site A generic term for a primary host or a primary DKC, or a site where they are located. This site
normally runs applications and is the source for backup copies.
R

RACF An IBM security management product.
RCU Remote control unit.
RECFM Record format.
remote command An arbitration command device of the subordinate DKC, which is mapped to the supervisor DKC
device as an external volume.
remote control unit A disk control unit that controls the S-VOL of a Cnt Ac-S/Cnt Ac-A/Cnt Ac-J copy pair.
remote scan A function to acquire disk configuration information about the volumes on a storage system that
has no channel connection to the host.
remote storage A storage system that is not directly connected to the primary host.
system
Remote Web A browser-based program installed on the SVP that allows you to configure and manage the disk
Console array.
