Table 48 Return Values for the Various ModifySynchronization() Operations

Explanation/NotesValuesValueMap

Applicable only for Detach (promote).Job Completed with No Error0

For example: the

TPD_StorageSynchronized object does

not exist.

Failed4

For example: the wrong CopyType is

specified.

Invalid Parameter5

Does not apply to Detach.Method parameters checked – job

started

0x1000

The method execution, if successful, always returns 0x1000, which means that job has started. A

client can either monitor Job.OperationalStatus for job completion or wait for the modification

of OperationalStatus for a ConcreteJob to indicate Complete and OK or Complete and

Error.

Table 49 (page 65) shows the values for SyncState and WhenSynced during various stages of

physical copy resynchronization.

SMI-S METHOD

A physical copy can be promoted with the source volume by a CIM client using the

TPD_StorageConfigurationService.ModifySynchronization() method with the

Operation parameter set to Detach (2). After a successful Detach operation, the

StorageSynchronized association between the source and target volume is relinquished and

the target volume becomes an independent base volume. The Detach operation is synchronous

and does not require a job.

Table 50 (page 65) shows the values for SyncState and WhenSynced during various stages of

physical copy promotion.

Table 50 State Transitions for Physical Copy Promotion

There are no corresponding SyncState in SMI-S for
