Adding links to an existing Remote Copy target

Add a link pair (a port on each system) to an existing target.

Procedure
  1. On the HPE SSMC main menu, select Remote Copy Configurations under DATA PROTECTION.
  2. Choose a configuration from the list, and then click Actions > Add Links.
  3. For Targets, select an existing target where you want to add the links.
  4. Select a port on each system.
    NOTE:

    As a best practice, ensure all Remote Copy ports used by a target operate at the same speed. Consider checking the Service Level Agreement for the network provider for minimum bandwidth.

  5. (Optional) Update port settings such as the gateway address, Maximum Transmission Units (MTU), or configured rate:
    1. Under Port Pairs, click the edit icon next to the port you want to update.
    2. Make the necessary changes, and then click OK.
  6. (Optional) Test connectivity between systems:
    1. Under Port Pairs, click the edit icon next to the port you want to test.
    2. Click Ping.
  7. Click OK.
