6.2.6
How SyncRep protects volume availability
In normal SyncRep operation, in which the volume is in sync, the pools containing the SyncActive and
SyncAlternate volumes contain identical data. Volume writes are accepted as shown in Fig 15.

SyncRep
1.
The iSCSI initiator sends a write to the group.
2.
Data is simultaneously written to both the SyncActive and SyncAlternate volumes.
3.
The SyncActive and SyncAlternate volumes confirm to the group that the writes are complete.
4.
The write is confirmed to the iSCSI initiator.
6.2.7
SyncAlternate volume unavailable
If the group can write to the SyncActive volume, but can no longer write to the SyncAlternate, initiator
access to the volume continues without disruption, as shown in Figure 16.
