Establishing Copy Services relationships
Use the Common Information Model agent object class instances to establish new Copy Services relationships.
- Copy Services
FlashCopy® is a copy service provided by the Storwize® V3700. - Replication Services
You can use Replication Services to manage copy relationships. - Creating a new FlashCopy relationship between storage volumes
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods for establishing a FlashCopy relationship between two IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instances that are the same size and belong to the same IBMTSSVC_Cluster instance. - Creating a new target StorageVolume for a FlashCopy relationship
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods for creating a new FlashCopy relationship between IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume and target IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instances, connected through an IBMTSSVC_FlashCopyStorageSynchronized association. - Creating a replica target storage volume
You can create a target storage volume that is a replica of an existing storage volume. - Creating a FlashCopy relationship for a synchronized set
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods for establishing a FlashCopy relationship between two IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instances and then adding it to an IBMTSSVC_FlashCopyStorageSynchronizedSet instance. - Sample code to create and start a FlashCopy mapping
This information demonstrates how CIMOM methods control the clustered system. The sample code includes a main method from a Java™ class, which is designed to create and start a FlashCopy mapping, and other methods called from the main method.
