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

Please be aware of the following when changing journal options:
• Journal options must be changed on both systems, primary and secondary.
• To change journal options, one of the following conditions must be satisfied:
- The attribute of the journal is Initial.
- The status of the journal in the mirror is one of the following:
◦ Initial
◦ Stopped
◦ Hold
◦ Holding
◦ Hold(Failure)
When one journal uses multiple mirrors, whether you can select Change Journal Option
depends on the status of the journal whose mirror is not in Hold, Holding or Hold(Failure)
status. For example, if mirrors in the journal are in the Hold and Active status, you can not
change the journal option. If mirrors in the journal are in the Hold and Stopped status, you
can change the journal option.
• When changing options for multiple journals, you can leave some options unchanged by
entering or selecting no value. If you specify a value, it is applied to the selected journals.
