I am trying to flashcopy a single source volume to multiple target volume
s
in an EXEC. The first two FLASHCOPY commands appear to work. However the
volumes following that get the following error message:
>>> "CP FLASHCOPY 7000 0 3338 TO 704B 0 3338"
HCPCMM296E Status is not as required - 7000; an unexpected condition
HCPCMM296E occurred while executing a FLASHCOPY command, code = AF.
+++ RC(296) +++
>>> "CP FLASHCOPY 7000 0 3338 TO 704C 0 3338"
HCPCMM296E Status is not as required - 7000; an unexpected condition
HCPCMM296E occurred while executing a FLASHCOPY command, code = AE.
+++ RC(296) +++
Is there a limit on how many copies with a single source I can do at once
?
Also, is there a way to tell the status of the background activities an
d
when they are complete? These volumes were the secondary part of a PPR
C
pair. I have run the ICKDSF SEVER process to sever the connection. They n
o
longer should be used as the targets for PPRC. Is that having an effect?
The result of a ICKDSF PPRC QUERY is:
0 PPRC QUERY UNIT(704B)

The first two volumes that worked are the same so I don't know what is
causing the problem on the third and succeeding volumes. Thanks for any
help.
