HP XP7 Continuous Access Journal User Guide (TK911-96002)

When performing these functions with a remote command device, the number of registered
journals and instances used by RAID Manager are subtracted from the number of mirrors that
can be shared.
• A maximum of 16 remote command devices can be used for the delta resync operation per
DKC.
