14.1.2. FlashCopy statements
The use of SVC FlashCopy with IBM i as a client of VIOS is supported as outlined below.
Please
note
that to implement and use this solution,
multiple manual steps in SVC, in VIOS and in
IBM i are required
. Currently, no toolkit exists that automates this solution and it is not part of
IBM PowerHA for IBM i. The components of the solution – SVC FlashCopy, VIOS and IBM i –
must be managed separately and require the corresponding skill set. Note also that support for
this solution will be provided by multiple IBM support organizations and not solely by the IBM i
Support Center.
Support statements:
•
SVC FlashCopy is supported by IBM i as a client of VIOS on both IBM Power servers and
IBM Power blades
•
Full-system FlashCopy when the production IBM i logical partition (LPAR) is powered off
is supported
•
Full-system FlashCopy when the production IBM i LPAR is in restricted state is supported
•
Full-system FlashCopy of the production IBM i logical partition (LPAR) after using the
IBM i 6.1 memory flush to disk (quiesce) function is supported
•
Full-system FlashCopy when the production IBM i LPAR is running is
not supported
•
FlashCopy of Independent Auxiliary Storage Pools (IASPs) is
not supported
