Ending Global Mirror processing (script mode)

Edit online

Complete this task to end Global Mirror processing that is being controlled through a script. Complete the steps in this task only if there is no alternative. For example a disaster has occurred and you must immediately stop all processing.

About this task

There is no way to pause a script. The only way to stop a script is to press the Ctrl + C keys, which stops your DS CLI session. It is likely that this action might cause some transactions to remain partly completed and others undone.

Pressing Ctrl C does not stop Global Mirror processing which is controlled through the microcode. To stop the microcode processing of Global Mirror operations, you must log back in to a DS CLI session and enter the rmgmir command.

This task does not provide the detailed instructions for recovery. The recovery instructions are described in the Recovering when a disaster strikes task.
