Remote Copy links

Remote Copy links establish communication between storage systems.

When you create target definitions for a system during setup, define a minimum of one pair of links for each secondary system. For redundancy, configure more than one communication network between storage systems. Replication can then continue even if one of the networks fails.

You create links during Remote Copy setup by using either the creatercopytarget command or the admitrcopylink command.

When you create a link, it becomes both a sending and receiving link for the port specified in the command.
