Chandra Dhungana's Blog: Step by step SRDF

Posted by Chandra Dhungana Mar 10, 2011 Goals: Step by step SRDF configure will be done based on following information. It is assumed that your Symmetrix already dynamic SRDF enabled and there is no connectivity probem with Sorce (R1) and Remote (R2) Symmetrix <RA-Group> 20 <RA Label> <RA Pair> (R1) (R2) 100 150 101 151 102 151 <DG> Virtual_OS RDFGROUP20

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1. RA-Group Check the existing RA-Group -> C:> symcfg list -ra all Create RA-Group C:> symrdf addgrp -label RDFGROUP20 -rdfg 20 -sid <XXXX> -dir <XX>,<XX> -remote_rdfg 20 -remote_sid <XXXX> -remote_dir <XX>,<XX> -nop

Note: rdfg and remote-rdfg should be same to manage easier.

2.Create Dynamic SRDF Pair Create Pair File File Name: Virtual_OS.txt 100 150 101 151 102 151

Create Dynamic SRDF Pair with adaptive copy disk mode C:> symrdf -file Virtual_OS.txt -sid <XXXX> -rdfg 20 createpair -type R1 -invalidate R2 -rdf_mode acp_disk -nop Check the pair creation C:> symrdf list -rdfg 20

3. Create Device Group Check the existing DG Create Device Group C:> symdg list C:> symdg create Virtual_OS -type rdf1 C:> symld -g Virtual_OS add dev 100

Add R1 members to the DG.

C:> symld -g Virtual_OS add dev 101 C:> symld -g Virtual_OS add dev 102 or C:> symld -g Virtual_OS addall -RANGE 100:102 4. Start full synchronization Check the current status Start full synchronization C:> symrdf -g Virtual_OS C:> symrdf -g Virtual_OS establish -nop

5. Change SRDF mode to Async I. Check the invalid tracks on R2. Wait until "R2 Inv Tracks" < 3000 C:> symrdf -g Virtual_OS que <OUTPUT>

Then, change the mode to Async with the next procedure.

Device Group (DG) Name DG's Type DG's Symmetrix ID Remote Symmetrix ID RDF (RA) Group Number
