With
FCP,
a
single
fibre-channel
link
between
two
ports
enables
bi-directional
remote
mirror
and
copy
operations.
This
means
that
it
is
possible
to
send
and
receive
data
in
both
directions
simultaneously.
For
example,
one
link
can
have
a
path
that
is
established
in
one
direction
and
then
have
another
path
that
is
established
in
another
direction
at
the
same
time,
on
the
same
physical
path.
While
a
FCP
interface
can
accommodate
simultaneous
data
transfers,
it
does
have
limited
bandwidth.
To
distribute
workload
evenly
to
all
available
paths,
the
storage
unit
monitors
the
overall
workload
on
each
port
and
selects
paths
that
are
determined
by
the
size
of
the
data
transfer,
the
available
bandwidth
available
on
each
FCP
port,
and
the
number
of
data
transfers,
currently
processing
on
each
port.
Selecting
paths
in
this
manner
ensures
good
response
time
and
overall
system
throughput.
Copy
Services
for
System
z
and
S/390
hosts
Copy
Services
functions
are
also
supported
in
a
System
z
or
S/390
environment.
These
functions
allow
you
to
create
a
point-in-time
copy
or
to
mirror
data
at
your
remote
or
recovery
site
as
applications
make
changes
to
the
source
volumes
at
your
production
site.
Copy
Services
for
System
z
and
S/390
hosts
includes
z/OS
Global
Mirror.
z/OS
Global
Mirror
z/OS
Global
Mirror
(previously
known
as
Extended
Remote
Copy
or
XRC)
provides
a
long-distance
remote
copy
solution
across
two
sites
for
open
systems
and
System
z
data
using
asynchronous
technology.
DS8000
storage
complexes
support
the
z/OS
Global
Mirror
function
only
on
System
z
hosts.
The
Global
Mirror
function
mirrors
data
on
the
storage
unit
to
a
remote
location
for
disaster
recovery.
It
protects
data
consistency
across
all
volumes
that
you
have
defined
for
mirroring.
The
volumes
can
reside
on
several
different
storage
units.
The
z/OS
Global
Mirror
function
can
mirror
the
volumes
over
several
thousand
kilometers
from
the
source
site
to
the
target
recovery
site.
With
Global
Mirror,
you
can
suspend
or
resume
service
during
an
outage.
You
do
not
have
to
end
your
current
data-copy
session.
You
can
suspend
the
session,
and
then
restart
it.
Only
data
that
changed
during
the
outage
must
be
synchronized
again
between
the
copies.
z/OS
Metro/Global
Mirror
z/OS
Metro/Global
Mirror
is
an
optional
function
that
is
available
with
the
remote
mirror
and
copy
feature
for
System
z
hosts
and
is
supported
on
the
DS8000.
The
mirroring
capability
of
z/OS
Metro/Global
Mirror
uses
Global
Mirror
to
mirror
data
at
a
production
site
to
a
location
that
is
a
long
distance
away.
This
function
also
uses
Metro
Mirror
to
mirror
data
from
the
same
primary
devices
at
the
production
site
to
a
location
within
a
metropolitan
area.
The
z/OS
Metro/Global
Mirror
function
enables
a
3-site
high
availability
and
disaster
recovery
solution
for
even
greater
protection
from
unplanned
outages.
Consistency
groups
Consistency
groups
are
used
for
controlling
error
situations
and
for
maintaining
data
consistency
at
a
recovery
site.
