DE Series OLH 11.70.4 - Asynchronous mirroring - What do I need to know before creating a mirrored pair?

You configure mirrored pairs in the SAN Manager interface, and then manage the pairs in System Manager.

Before creating a mirrored pair, follow these guidelines.

You must have two storage arrays.
Each storage array must have two controllers.
Each controller in both the primary array and secondary array must have an Ethernet management port configured and must be connected to your network.
Your local and remote storage arrays are connected through a Fibre Channel fabric or iSCSI interface.
You must know the password for the local and remote storage arrays.
You must have enough free capacity on the remote storage array to create a secondary volume equal to or greater than the primary volume that you want to mirror.
You have installed the Web Services Proxy and SAN Manager. Mirrored pairs are configured in the SAN Manager interface.
The two storage arrays are discovered in SAN Manager.
Your storage array must contain at least one mirror consistency group. You create a consistency group in SAN Manager in the Create Mirrored Pairs wizard.
