copy pair are collectively managed by a single host computer.
Storage system

multiple management servers manage a single storage system.

The software configuration when Device Manager and Tiered Storage Manager are used is as follows:
P9000 Command View AE Suite
P9000 Command View AE Suite consists of the following components:
Common Component

Suite components. These functions include functions for managing user accounts and monit-
oring security.

manage storage partitions individually, you must provide a Device Manager
server for each storage partition.
Tiered Storage Manager server
The Tiered Storage Manager server component migrates storage system volumes.
Replication Manager server
The Replication Manager server component replicates storage system volumes.
Host Data Collector
The Host Data Collector component collects information about hosts (normal hosts, virtual
