Hi, For data mirroring between TS7760 arrays (grid members) there's two primary parts.
1. ACS routines on the mainframe need to assign the desired management class that is defined on the VTS with mirroring. 2. On the VTS use constructs, with the same management class name, to determine what happens to the data. I've kept it simple with just three management classes; one for synchronous write (i.e. mirroring between two arrays), one for write to VTS 'a', one for write to VTS 'b'. The VTS decides how and where to write the tapes by matching the management class. It comes with a GUI that makes it easy to define the policy. Cheers, Simon. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Peter Sent: 02 September 2018 12:14 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: Ts7700 replication WARNING: this email has originated from outside of the SSE Group.
