We're in the middle of setting up 3DC HUR , and after a fair bit of testing , turns out that replication manage doesnt support 3DC HUR. So I dug out the CCI manual and we're doing it command line.

This means we've lost the alerting capabilities of HCS . Anyone set up alerting from a cci managed system? I can set up a pairdisplay to a file but i'm no progeammer , anyone done this and then gone through scanning for PSUS/PSUE etc? Any scripts they'd be happy to share or any other approach you can recommend? We do use a combinationof Whats Up Gold and BMC to raise incidents in servicecenter , if anyones scripted something that could do that before , woudl love to have a look

tia

Cheers

Hi,

If you haven't found it already, you can use the pairevtwait command. (Check out the syntax in the CCI Command Reference Manual)

Use the -nowait option to report on the status of the PVOL

Use the -nowaits option to report on the status of the SVOL

 

Return Codes for when the -nowait option is specified: (PVOL Status)

■ 1: The status is SMPL.

■ 2: The status is COPY or RCPY.

■ 3: The status is PAIR.

■ 4: The status is PSUS.

■ 5: The status is PSUE.

 

■ Return Codes for when the -nowaits option is specified: (SVOL Status)

■ 1: The status is SMPL.

■ 2: The status is COPY or RCPY.

■ 3: The status is PAIR.

■ 4: The status is SSUS (Note that SVOL_PSUS appears as SSUS).

■ 5: The status is PSUE

 

I have used this in a clunky Windows Bat script before that sent the latest pairdisplay output file (as you have already done) as an email attachment when a certain return code was given from the pairevtwait command.
