Adding and Deleting Logical Paths to an RCU

Before adding a path to an RCU, make sure that the remote copy connection is properly installed,
the appropriate MCU ports are configured as initiator ports, and the appropriate MCU CU is
selected. You can add up to four RCUs to each MCU CU and establish up to eight paths to each
RCU. When you add a path to an RCU, XP Continuous Access automatically starts using the new
path to perform XP Continuous Access copy activities.

The Add Path dialog box (see

Figure 35 (page 91)

) allows you to add one or more paths to an

existing RCU. To open the Add Path dialog box, select the MCU&RCU display on the RCU Operation
window, select and double-click on the desired MCU CU in the tree, select the desired RCU, and
then click the Add Path command.

MCU Port: Allows you to select the MCU port number from the drop-down list or to enter the port
number directly. Initiator ports are listed.

RCU Port: Allows you to select the RCU port number from the drop-down list or to enter the port
number directly. You must select an RCU target port.

The number of enabled fields indicates the number of paths that can be added. You can specify
the port number with two characters. For instance, you can abbreviate CL1-A as 1A. You can also
enter the port number in both lowercase and uppercase characters.

Right-click the path and SSID list, and click Add Path to open the Add Path dialog box.
