The DLm8000s use VMAX for the back end storage, so the replication is SRDF. I
believe
the maximum distance for SRDF/S is 200km.

So, I have been asked to review the EMC DLm8000 and how its synchronous
replication for 200km, replication works for the mainframe. I would think
if your primary and secondary sites are greater than 200Km it would have to
be asynchronous.
Does anyone current have this in their shop and wish to
We have a client here replicating between DLm6000s less than 200km apart and
it's asynch. Works well. I'd agree that 200km would probably be asynch for a
production workload. Don't know about DLm8000s but I suspect they're similar
to DLm6000s.
