When you create a pair, you specify the pool to be used. A Fast Snap pair consists of a P-VOL and up to
1,024 S-VOLs. The MU numbers are assigned in the order of 3 to 1,023, followed by 0 to 2.
NOTE: After creating a Fast Snap pair, the number of pairs shown in the summary section in the Local
Replication window and the number of pairs shown in the list in the FS Pairs tab can be different. Wait
until the configuration information has completed processing. If the numbers of pairs do not match, reload
the configuration information (see
Reloading Fast Snap configuration information on page 112).
CAUTION: To prevent the Fast Snap pair from being suspended ("PSUE" status), do not create
Fast Snap pairs while you are shutting down the storage system.
Requirements:
• The P-VOL and S-VOLs you select must be the same size in blocks, if you create a Fast Snap pair
with an S-VOL specified. If the capacity is displayed in GB or TB, a small difference between P-VOL
and S-VOL capacity might not be displayed.
