CMMVC8665E: The FlashCopy mapping was not started because the source volume is in an active-active relationship and does not contain an up-to-date copy or have host access enabled.

Explanation

HyperSwap® volumes contain a copy on each site, and copying data from one site to the other introduces significant unnecessary data movement. For a FlashCopy mapping that copies data from a HyperSwap® volume, the HyperSwap® volume must have an up-to-date copy on the same site as the target volume of the FlashCopy mapping.

User Response

Allow the HyperSwap® volume to synchronize fully before you start the FlashCopy mapping. Alternatively, create and use a FlashCopy mapping on the same site as the up-to-date copy of the HyperSwap® volume.
