HP XP7 User Manual

To protect a volume only from copy operations, you must ensure that the volume has the read/write
attribute then assign the S-VOL Disable attribute to the volume. This setting prohibits the volume
from being used as a secondary volume for copy operations.
Remote Web Console secondary windows must be defined for use in advance. When you select
Modify from the Data Retention secondary window to disable an S-VOL, other users or programs
are prevented from changing storage system settings. When you close the secondary window,
Modify mode is released. For more information on Remote Web Console secondary windows and
Modify mode, see the HP XP7 Remote Web Console User Guide.
To disable an S-VOL:
1. Navigate to the Remote Web Console as a user assigned to the Storage Administrator
(Provisioning) role.
2. In the Remote Web Console main window, click Actions > Other Function > Data Retention.
3. Click to change to Modify mode.
4. Select an LDKC number in the LDKC list, select a group that the CU belongs in the CU Group
list, then click a CU in the tree.
5. Right-click a volume for which the S-VOL column shows Enable. You may select multiple
volumes.
6. Select S-VOL > Disable.
7. Click Apply to apply the setting.
To use a volume as an S-VOL, ensure that the volume has the read/write attribute then assign the
S-VOL Enable attribute to the volume.
