Go-To-Sync Using The Ds Cli; Display Out-Of-Sync Tracks; Create A Consistent Point-In-Time Copy - IBM System storage DS6000 Series Redbook

18.2.4 Go-to-sync using the DS CLI

You can also use the DS CLI command mkpprc with the option -mmir to synchronize a Global
Copy pair, as shown in Example 18-3.
Example 18-3 mkpprc command
dscli> mkpprc -dev ibm.1750-13aagxa -remotedev ibm.1750-13aavca -type mmir

created.

18.2.5 Display out-of-sync tracks

After a Global Copy pair is established, the volumes go into the copy pending state. The copy
pending state also remains if no tracks are out-of-sync. You can display the out-of-sync
tracks with the DS CLI or with the DS Storage Manager.
With the DS CLI you can use the lspprc command; see Example 18-4.

properties window; see Figure 18-2.

18.3 Create a consistent point-in-time copy

While the copy pair volumes are in the copy pending state, the secondary volumes maintain a
fuzzy copy
Because of the non-synchronous data transfer characteristics, at any time there is a
certain amount of updated data that is not reflected at the secondary volume. This data
