TPC for Replication uses a session concept that is similar to what Global Mirror for System z
(XRC) uses.
(XRC) uses.
A session is a logical concept that gathers multiple Copy Sets, representing a group of
volumes with the requirement to provide consistent data within the scope of all involved
volumes. Commands and processes performing against a session apply these actions to all
Copy Sets within the session. Again, this is similar to a Global Mirror for System z (XRC)
session.

Figure 31-6 on page 475 shows an example of two storage servers at the local site and two
corresponding storage servers at the remote site. The example further assumes that a Metro
Mirror relation is established to replicate data between both sites.
