13.1.9 Use in combination with XCOPY (Extended Copy)

When copying data by replicating VMware vSphere virtual machines or running Storage vMotion, Extended Copy (hereinafter referred to as "XCOPY") session starts by the Full Copy function of VMware vStorage APIs for Array Integration (VMware VAAI). However, Advanced Copy cannot be performed by AdvancedCopy Manager on the condition that a volume on which XCOPY session is running is taken as copy destination. For this reason, if Advanced Copy is performed by AdvancedCopy Manager on the condition that a volume on which data is being copied by replicating a virtual machine or running Storage vMotion is taken as copy destination, an error message is displayed and the command may terminate abnormally.

If the command terminates abnormally, check on the Web Console that no XCOPY session exists on the copy destination volume and then re-execute the command.

Figure 13.7 Use in combination with XCOPY

*1: In the following ETERNUS Disk storage systems whose firmware version number is V10L50 or earlier, Advanced Copy cannot be performed by AdvancedCopy Manager with respect to the volume on which XCOPY session is running.
