Selecting a pool as your primary volume
You select a pool when you are creating a Thin Image pair if you are not
using the P-VOL of a Thin Image pair (that is, you have selected No for Use
Primary Volumes of Thin Image Pairs in the Create TI Pairs window of the
Create TI Pairs wizard).
Procedure
1. In the Explorer pane, click Storage Systems, expand the storage
system tree, expand Replication, and then click Local Replication.
2. In the Local Replication window, select a P-VOL in the TI Root
Volumes tab or a snapshot group in the Snapshot Groups tab, and
then click Create TI Pairs.
3. In the Create TI Pairs window of the Create TI Pairs wizard, click
Select Pool.
4. In the Select Pool window, from the Available Pools table, select the
pool you want to add, and then click OK.
The selected pool is displayed in Select Pool on the Create TI Pairs
window.
Example of creating complex Thin Image pairs
A complex Thin Image pair is a pair where the P-VOL and S-VOL are not
connected one to one. The following is an example of how to create Thin
Image pairs of different configurations simultaneously.
In this example, one pair of two S-VOLs and another pair of one S-VOL are
created simultaneously. Each pair’s configuration is specified in the Create TI
Pairs window.
1. In Create Pairs using Volumes as Root Volumes, select Yes.
2. Select two primary volumes from the Available Primary Volumes
table.
3. In Cascade, select Enable to create a cascaded pair.
