Set Up A Metro Mirror Environment - IBM System storage DS6000 Series Redbook

The port IDs for source and target. Up to eight port pair IDs can be specified.
– The lsioport lists the ports on the system.
– A port ID will have the format I0102, for example.

14.5.1 Set up a Metro Mirror environment

This section gives examples of the commands you can use to set up a Metro Mirror
environment. This includes the commands needed to set up the Metro Mirror paths, as well
as the commands needed to create the Metro Mirror relationships.
lsavailpprcport
The lsavailppcport command is used to display the disk subsystems I/O ports that are
available for defining the remote mirroring paths. Example 14-26 shows an lsavailpprcport
command.
Example 14-26 lsavailpprcport command
dscli> lsavailpprcport -dev IBM.1750-1300247 -remotedev IBM.1750-1300819 -remotewwnn

In this example, the following parameters are specified:
-dev
-remotedev
-remotewwnn

mkpprcpath
The mkpprcpath command is used to establish Metro Mirror paths between LSS pairs on
DS6000 subsystems. You can also use this command to replace existing paths. Using the
-consistgrp parameter with this command, you create Consistency Groups.
Example 14-27 shows a mkpprcpath command with two paths being defined.
Example 14-27 mkpprcpath command
dscli> mkpprcpath -dev IBM.1750-1300247 -remotedev IBM.1750-1300819 -remotewwnn
