Creating target volumes

Complete the following steps to create target volumes for FlashCopy mapping:

1. If you did not create a target volume for this source volume, then select the source volume

via left-click, then click Actions → Advanced FlashCopy → Create New Target

Volumes, as shown in Figure 10-23.

Tip: You can start FlashCopy from the GUI. However, the use of the GUI might be

impractical if you plan to handle many FlashCopy mappings or Consistency Groups

periodically or at varying times. In these cases, creating a script by using the CLI might be

more convenient.

Target volume naming: If the target volume does not exist, the target volume is

created. The target volume name is based on its source volume and a generated

number at the end, for example, source_volume_name_XX, where XX is a number that

was generated dynamically.
