Restore the natural direction of data flow to the Remote Copy system. On the failover system
(SystemB), enter:

# setrcopygroup restore -f -t <target_name>

<target_name>

- Name of the target (recovered) system (SystemA)

The setrcopygroup restore command:

Starts tasks for each group that was recovered

Starts a final synchronization from the synchronous backup system (SystemB) to the
asynchronous periodic backup system (SystemC) to ensure that the asynchronous periodic
backup system has the most recent data

Stops the volume groups

Switches the secondary volume groups on the primary system (SystemA) to primary volume
groups

Switches the primary volume groups on the synchronous backup system (SystemB) to
secondary volume groups

Returns the recovered system (SystemA) to the role of primary system

Starts Remote Copy on the primary system (SystemA)

For example, the list of tasks on the synchronous backup system (SystemB) looks like:

# setrcopygroup restore -f -t SystemA
