As far as IBM DS8000 is concerned, if you have Flashcopy, you also have
Metro Mirror (PPRC), as both are pa
But can ICKDSF as Sam indicates?I had decided it couldn't and so went
with CSM under zLinux...my knowledge of the ICKDSF implementations of
PPRC and FLASHCPY aren't real solid though...

Ok - in our case we are doing flashcopy within the same storage
subsystem. we are not implementing PPRC but FLASHCOPY.

Maybe we are talking about different things...you can establish
relationships between source/target volumes -- but I don't see anything
that let's you define a consistency group -- i.e. several volumes which
will be flashed at the exact moment in time.

In the ICKDSF manual
(http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSB27U_6.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.ickug00/toc.htm),
check out the FLASHCOPY and PPRCOPY commands.

Please explain how to use ICKDSF to establish a consistency group and
initiate a flashcopy I see no way to do it...

CSM (or command line on the SSCP (or whatever it's called these days) can do
it, as can ICKDSF on z/VM.

I'm talking about initiating the flashcopy ... not mirroring solutions...
CSM let's you initiate flashcopy with consistency groups.z/VM can only
do serial FLASHCOPY commands...

Scott,
You don't need Copy Services Manager, you just need a storage subsystem capable
and enabled for Global Mirror, which is independent and outside of any
operating system. z/VM disks can be part of a consistency group, just as VSE,
z/OS, Linux or TPF disks can.
