v The volume that was previously the slave becomes the master
Before this command switches roles, the system stops accepting new writes to the
local volume. With synchronous mirrors the system will perform all pending
writes, and only after all pending writes have been committed, the roles are
switched.
After the command is executed, the coupling is deactivated and the user has to
activate it in order to restart synchronization. It is advised to create a snapshot
before deactivating the coupling in order to enable recovery from logical errors due
to incorrect server configurations.
