24.2.3 Establish FlashCopy using ICKDSF
ICKDSF is usually the interface that is used to manage remote copy configurations in z/VM
and z/VSE environments. It is a batch-oriented approach and requires the JCL to invoke
ICKDSF. Example 24-7 shows the FlashCopy command used to create a Global Mirror
FlashCopy relationship.

Note the syntax variation in the SRCVOL and TGTVOL parameters, when hex notation is
used and when it is not used. In the SRCVOL parameter, the serial number of the storage
disk subsystem is not in hex notation, but all the other parameters are. The TGTVOL
parameters are also in hex notation, except for the z/OS device number of the FlashCopy
target volume.

24.2.4 Which interface to choose
Which interface you choose depends on your preferences and the experience you gathered
in the past. In our examples, we left out the DS Storage Manager GUI, which is another
alternative. A fully automated solution such as GDPS relieves you of the decision as to which
interface to use to manage the Global Mirror environment.
