Table 25 (page 107) shows the pair status and availability of Data Retention Utility operations from
Storage Navigator. Table 26 (page 107) shows whether the access attribute can be changed when
the pair status of an XP Continuous Access Journal primary data volume is PAIR or COPY.
When the volume pair of which you changed the access attribute is registered in multiple mirrors,
even if one mirror has a setting that does not allow operating of the pair status, you cannot change
the access attribute of the volume.

*Note: You can change the access attribute. However, it is not recommended because the pair cannot be
resynchronized if S VOL Disable is set to the volume.
