Resume a metro resource

About this task

NOTE:You can resume individual metro volumes or metro volume groups. It is not possible to resume a metro volume that is a member of a volume group.
Resume can be initiated either from the preferred or from the nonpreferred system.

When you resume a preferred, paused metro resource, the preferred system starts synchronizing data with the nonpreferred system. After synchronization is complete, the metro resource status returns to an active/active state.

When you resume a promoted (previously nonpreferred), paused metro resource, the nonpreferred system starts synchronizing with the preferred system (Reprotecting state) to return to active/active state.

NOTE:If a metro resource was paused for a long time, synchronization may take a while due to data accumulation on the preferred system.

If the nonpreferred system was promoted, resuming the metro resource from the promoted nonpreferred system synchronizes data from the promoted nonpreferred system to the preferred.

Steps

  1. Select Protection > Metro.
  2. Select the check box of the metro resource to resume and click Resume.
    The Resume Metro Volume/Volume Group dialog box is displayed.
  3. Click Resume to confirm.
