Point

It is recommended that the copy destination logical volume should not be connected to any server, for the following reasons:

  • To prevent copies between different operating systems

  • Operating system behavior cannot be guaranteed if there is another logical volume with the same management information in the same ETERNUS disk storage systems

However, if the copy destination logical volume is connected to the CCM server in order to back up the data to tape, the CCM server and the server being backed up must both have the same operating system.


1.4.2.2 Exclusion software

The AdvancedCopy Manager CCM cannot coexist with the following software.

The AdvancedCopy Manager CCM is internally bundled with the ETERNUS SF Express. When the ETERNUS SF Express has been installed, use the AdvancedCopy Manager CCM bundled with the ETERNUS SF Express.
