IBM System Storage DS6000 Series: Copy Services with IBM System z

Most of the parameters for remote FlashCopy commands are similar to those for local 
FlashCopy commands. Two major exceptions between local and remote FlashCopy 
commands are: 

򐂰

Each remote command has the parameter 

 to identify the link to pass the 

command to the secondary DS6000.

򐂰

The local FlashCopy command 

 has no remote equivalent.

Figure 9-2 summarizes the parameters and the corresponding DS CLI commands that can be 
used when doing remote FlashCopy. 

The description of the parameters is similar to the description presented in Section 9.4.1, 
“Parameters used with local FlashCopy commands” on page 73. With regard to the 
parameter 

, which only applies to remote FlashCopy, the following explanation 

applies:

: within a remote mirror environment, the FlashCopy commands are sent across 

the mirror paths, thus avoiding the necessity of having separate network connections to 
the remote site solely for the management of the remote FlashCopy. The 

 

parameter identifies the path to be used for transmitting the commands to the remote site.
