Name
Description
Last Resort
The source system only reads data from the target system if
the source system cannot read from any of its own data
partitions.
Minimum Latency
The source system reads the data from the data partition
with the least latency no matter whether it is connected to
the source system or the target system. For example, if the
source system only has the data on tape and the target
system has the data on pool, the data is read from the target
pool.
Note:
Only use MINIMUM LATENCY when the network
between the source and target is very inexpensive.
After Online Pool
The source system only reads data from the target system if
the source system cannot read from an online pool.
After Nearline Pool
The source system only reads data from the target system if
the source system cannot read from a nearline pool.
After Non-Ejectable
Tape
The source system only reads data from the target system if
the source system cannot read from a non-ejectable tape.
Never
Data is never read from the target system
