Re: Disk copy using HA

All steps were working ok until the CRGGEOMIR, today I tried again and it
requested to select the disks for the copy, I understand setting up the
disks will take a long time.
About this kind of problems we have a saing: "Se fue sin que lo echen,
volverá sin que lo llamen"
In french: "Il est parti sans être expulsé, il reviendra sans être appelé"
The copy is in 2%...

It is maybe in the process to synchronize the copy descriptions, e.g. the initial copy. Ususally it is done during the following IASP vary on. You should have messages in your joblog or in QSYSOPR message queue that give you this information.

Thank you for the manuals, I have them open in my desk, but I was wondering
if I have missed some important step.
I also have the red book "System mirror for IBM i" it is a little old
(2012)

Yes, 8 years, no 9 years in fact... I can remember just if it was a couple of months ago (look at the authors of this redbook) !

I have already started inetd, I have the iASP in the production machine,
not in the back-up.
Already tried in the web interface, and now I am following the steps from
the red book:

Example 12-1 CL commands used for similar geographic mirroring setup
CRTDEVASP DEVD(IASP1) RSRCNAME(IASP1)
ADDDEVDMNE CLUSTER(PWRHA_CLU) DEVDMN(PWRHA_DMN) NODE(DEMOGEO1)
ADDDEVDMNE CLUSTER(PWRHA_CLU) DEVDMN(PWRHA_DMN) NODE(DEMOGEO2)
CRTCRG CLUSTER(PWRHA_CLU) CRG(PWRHA_CRG) CRGTYPE(*DEV) EXITPGM(*NONE)
USRPRF(*NONE)
RCYDMN((DEMOGEO1 *PRIMARY *LAST SITE1 ('192.170.86.11' '192.170.87.11'))
(DEMOGEO2 *BACKUP 1 SITE2 ('192.170.86.10' '192.170.87.10')))
CFGOBJ((IASP1 *DEVD *ONLINE '10.0.0.1')) FLVMSGQ(QSYS/QSYSOPR)
FLVWAITTIM(*NOMAX) FLVDFTACN(*CANCEL)
CFGGEOMIR ASPDEV(IASP2) ACTION(*CREATE) SRCSITE(SITE1) TGTSITE(SITE2)
SSN(SSN1CPYD2/SSN1CPYD1/ASPGEOSSN1)DELIVERY(*ASYNC) UNITS(DD021)
CLUSTER(PWRHA_CLU)
CRG(PWRHA_CRG) MODE(*ASYNC)
STRCRG CLUSTER(PWRHA_CLU) CRG(PWRHA_CRG)

If all setup is correct, the CRG will remain ineligible until the initial synchronization completion. You can monitor the progress of the copy with DSPASPSSN command.
