Recovering from a disaster at a non-primary near site with a star configuration

Edit online

To recover from a disaster at a non-primary near site with a star configuration, use a CLI command to verify the condition and use the T2 recovery procedure.

  1. Enter the ls3sitercconsistgrp command to verify the state of the consistency groups. In the resulting output, the state of the consistency group is 2-site periodic.
    [root@ORCH-HOST cli]# ls3sitercconsistgrp
name state  primary periodic_copy_source sync_copy_state periodic_copy_state freeze_time cycle_period    status
CG0  2site_periodic   Master  AuXNear  consistent_disconnected stopped 0 350 partner_offline
  2. Complete the recover system procedure to recover the site.
  3. Enter the enablecli command to enable IBM Spectrum Virtualize 3-Site Orchestrator to access the storage system.
  4. To finish the recovery process, you might need run a command to include the site in data cycling.
    • If the sync_copy_state is consistent_synchronized, the site is automatically included in data cycling.
    • If sync_copy_state is consistent_stopped, enter the ch3sitercconsist -join command to include the site in data cycling.
      Enter the ls3sitercconsistgrp command to verify the recovery.
      [root@ORCH-HOST cli]# ls3sitercconsistgrp
name state primary periodic_copy_source sync_copy_state  periodic_copy_state freeze_time cycle_period status
CG0  3site_consistent Master  AuXNear consistent_synchronized stopped 0 350 online
