This copy service is available to all supported hosts that are connected to the Lenovo Storage V series.

The FlashCopy service enables you to make an instant, point-in-time copy of a source IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instance to a target IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instance.

The synchronous copy service (Metro Mirror) provides a consistent copy of the source IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume on the target IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume. Data is written to the target volume synchronously after it is written to the source volume, both of which can belong to the same IBMTSSVC_Cluster instance or different IBMTSSVC_Cluster instances.

The asynchronous copy service (Global Mirror) provides a copy of the source IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume on the target IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume. Data is written to the target volume asynchronously after it is written to the source volume, both of which can belong to the same IBMTSSVC_Cluster instance or different IBMTSSVC_Cluster instances.
