Hitachi TrueCopy z/OS for HP XP12000/XP10000 and SVS 200 storage systems
NOTE:
This mode information was current at the time of publication of this document, but it may change.
Contact your HP account support representative for the latest XP12000/XP10000 SVP system option mode
information.
XP12000/XP10000 performing TC390A operations (main and remote) use sidefiles in cache for storing
the TC390A recordsets. HXRC also uses cache sidefiles. Disk arrays performing TC390A and/or HXRC
must have sufficient cache installed to handle the increased sidefile usage. Insufficient cache can degrade
disk array I/O performance and cause command retry requests and state-change-pending (SCP)
messages. For more information on cache usage and sidefile thresholds, see ”
