Use the Common Information Model agent object class
instances to establish new Copy Services relationships.
Copy Services FlashCopy, Global Mirror, Metro Mirror, and HyperSwap® are copy services functions provided by the Lenovo Storage V7000.
Creating a new FlashCopy relationship between storage volumes
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods for establishing a FlashCopy relationship between two IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instances that are the same size and belong to the same IBMTSSVC_Cluster instance.
Creating a new target StorageVolume for a FlashCopy relationship
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods for creating a new FlashCopy relationship between IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume and target IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instances, connected through an IBMTSSVC_FlashCopyStorageSynchronized association.
Creating a FlashCopy relationship for a synchronized set
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods for establishing a FlashCopy relationship between two IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instances and then adding it to an IBMTSSVC_FlashCopyStorageSynchronizedSet instance.
Creating a synchronous copy relationship between volumes in different clustered systems
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods for creating a synchronous copy relationship between a source IBMTSSVC_StorageVolume instance and a target IBMTSSVC_RemoteStorageVolume instance belonging to different IBMTSSVC_Cluster instances.
Sample code to create and start a FlashCopy mapping
This information demonstrates how CIMOM methods control the clustered system. The sample code includes a main method from a Java class, designed to create and start a FlashCopy mapping, and other methods called from the main method.
