CLI Command Descriptions
An association set is a group of remote copy sets that shares common attributes (See
SET ASSOCIATIONS for the attribute list). This command adds an association set to
the controller pair’s configuration. The association set can be initialized with a single
remote copy set through the use of the remote-copy-set-name switch. Additional
remote copy sets can be added to the association set with the SET
association-set-name command.
NOTE: This command is hidden and inoperative until the controller pair is put into remote copy
mode by specifying the REMOTE_COPY switch of the SET controller command.
This command is valid only on the node on which the Initiator resides (where remote copy sets
are configured).
This command is rejected if the specified remote copy set is unknown to the controller
pair.
