Well, we did a services contract with IBM to get Global Mirror running, and the knowledge transfer was, shall we say, less than impressive. As long as it is working fine, there is no problem, but now that we are trying to deal with a failure, we find a gap in our knowledge.
I am learning more about the copy services that I wanted to, but I can't seem to find what to do to solve our issue. I have a document from IBM about "Suspend Recovery for Global Mirror", and it tells you what to do in several situations, none of which fits our case. Their situations have to do with the Sequence number, and revertible status. Even though we have volumes with Sequence number 0, or two other values, all volumes are Revertible = N. When we try to start the Global Mirror session, it fails with a "Revert FLC failed". From what I understand having read the documents quickly, the recovery process is mainly designed in getting the volumes into the Revertible=Disabled state, and it appears that is where we are, but we cannot get the session started. Can anybody give me a tiny push in the correct direction?
