ESTAB. PAIR FAILED- DEVICES NOT IN SIMPLEX MODE
Explanation
The primary and secondary volumes
specified with the CESTPAIR MODE(COPY) or MODE(NOCOPY) command cannot
be established when either of the following conditions exist:
- The specified primary and secondary devices are not in SIMPLEX
state.
- The primary device is in SUSPEND state but the secondary device
is in SIMPLEX state.
- The primary device or secondary device, or both, are in SUSPEND
state but the devices are not part of the same PPRC volume pair.
System action
System programmer response
Issue the CQUERY command
to verify the status of each device. Determine whether the specified
primary device and secondary device correspond to the same volume
pair specification. Then determine which of the following actions
to perform next:
- If the volume pair is active (PENDING or DUPLEX state), no action
is required.
- If the device specification of the specified primary and secondary
devices matches that of the primary and secondary device of an established
PPRC volume pair in SUSPEND state, reissue the CESTPAIR command with
MODE(RESYNC).
- If one or both devices are already part of a PPRC volume pair
with a different device, select a new device and reissue the CESTPAIR
command with the corrected device specification and MODE(COPY) or
MODE(NOCOPY) parameter.
