Copy, Mirror, and Migrate
Copying a Volume
Copy copies data from source volume to destination volume. Changes made to the source volume
during the copy process are added to the destination volume. Copy does not dynamically update the
destination volume after the copy is completed.
To make a copy of a volume
1 In the system tree, select a volume.
2 From the shortcut menu, select Copy > Copy Volume. The Copy Volume window appears.
3 Select a destination volume.
a To copy the source volume to an existing volume, select a destination volume from
the list of volumes displayed. The destination volume cannot be smaller than the
source volume. The destination volume cannot be mapped to a server. Click
Continue.
b Specify a priority relative to other Copy/Mirror/Migrate and Replication operations,
Low, Medium, or High.
c By checking Copy Historical Replay information, you are copying the volume and
all associated Replays. If you do not select this option, you exclude Replay data from
being copied. Click Continue.
To copy to and create a new volume, click Create New Volume. Follow the
procedure described Creating a Volume on page 67.
To copy a new volume with the same attributes as the source volume, click
Create Exact Duplicate. A duplicate volume is immediately created.
If Remote Instant Replay is licensed, you can click Create Replication Volume.
This command does not create a volume, but serves as a conduit for
Replications.
d Click Continue. A review window appears.
e Click Start to mirror the volume now. Click Schedule to set the start date and time.
In the scheduling window, enter a date and time.
Mirroring a Volume

and destination volumes are kept synchronized.
To create a volume mirror

2 From the volume shortcut menu, select Copy > Mirror Volume. The Mirror Volume
window appears.

the list of volumes displayed. The destination volume cannot be smaller than the
source volume. The destination volume cannot be mapped to a server. Click
Continue.
