VPLEX: How to check if XCOPY is enabled.

The steps below are to be followed to check if XCOPY is enabled and how to enable it if it is found not to be enabled.

Step 1: Login to VPlexcli as service and  list the storage-views by running the following command,

export stroage-view summary

Sample output:
VPlexcli:/> export storage-view summary 

Example:
View health summary(cluster-1):
view name      health-state  exported volumes  ports  registered initiators
-------------  ------------  ----------------  -----  --------------------
XXXXXXXXXXXXX  healthy                      X      X                     X
XXXXXXXXXXXXX  healthy                     XX      X                     X
XXXXXXXXXXXXX  healthy                     XX      X                     X

        Total 3 views, 0 unhealthy.

View health summary(cluster-2):
view name      health-state  exported volumes  ports  registered initiators
-------------  ------------  ----------------  -----  --------------------
XXXXXXXXXXXXX  healthy                      X      X                     X
XXXXXXXXXXXXX  healthy                      X      X                     X
XXXXXXXXXXXXX  healthy                      X      X                     X

        Total 3 views, 0 unhealthy.


Step 2: Change Directory (cd) to the particular storage-view in question and list the details by
              running the ' ll ' command as shown below.

Path: /clusters/<cluster-name>/exports/storage-views/<storage-view-name>

Example: 
VPlexcli:/> cd /clusters/cluster-1/exports/storage-views/sample-storage-view
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/exports/storage-views/sample-storage-view> ll

Name                      Value
------------------------  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
caw-enabled               true
controller-tag            -
initiators                [registered initiator name1, registered initiator-name2]
operational-status        ok
port-name-enabled-status  [P0000000046E00720-A0-FC00,true,ok, P0000000046E00720-A0-FC01,true,ok,
                          P0000000046F00720-B0-FC00,true,ok, P0000000046F00720-B0-FC01,true,ok]
ports                     [P0000000046E00720-A0-FC00, P0000000046E00720-A0-FC01,
                          P0000000046F00720-B0-FC00, P0000000046F00720-B0-FC01
virtual-volumes           [(X,device_XXXXX_XXXX_X_vol,VPDXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX,XT)]
write-same-16-enabled     true
xcopy-enabled             true <<< shows whether XCOPY as enabled

In the above output you can see that "xcopy-enabled" is set to true, which states that the XCOPY is enabled for this storage view. If "xcopy-enabled" shows as false then XCOPY is disabled.

If you find that any storage-view shows "xcopy-enabled" as false and you would like to enable it from the particular storage-view context use the 'set enabled' command as shown below.

cd to the specific storage-view you want the 'xcopy-enabled' feature set to true for as show in step 2 above. Once at the specific storage-view context level enable xcopy as follows.

VPlexcli:/clusters/VPLEX_XXXX/exports/storage-views/sampleStorage-view> set xcopy-enabled true

You will be returned back to the prompt. Now run the ' ll ' command again, as shows in step 2, to check that xcopy is now enabled.
