CMMVC8666E: The FlashCopy consistency group was not started because one or more of the source volumes are in an active-active relationship and do 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 consistency group that has one or more maps that copy 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.
