Post subject:  Scripting Physical Copies

Hello All,

I have a setup where we have 5 VVs for a Unix server and the on server level LVM is used to combine these 5 VVs to form a single entity.

Now, we have to create a Physical copy for these 5 VVs so that the same LVM technique is used on the test/ backup server to combine the 5 destination VVs thus created.

So our requirement is that:
1> Sync all the 5 source VVs with the respective destination VVs within the same time frame.
2> Split all these Physical Copies together.

We have prepared the below script to achieve this:

creategroupvvcopy -p -s <parent_VV1>:<destination_VV1>, <parent_VV2>:<destination_VV2> <parent_VV3>:<destination_VV3> <parent_VV4>:<destination_VV4>
<parent_VV5>:<destination_VV5>
creategroupvvcopy -r -s <parent_VV1>:<destination_VV1>, <parent_VV2>:<destination_VV2> <parent_VV3>:<destination_VV3> <parent_VV4>:<destination_VV4>
<parent_VV5>:<destination_VV5>

We need advice on the below:

1> Are the above command syntax correct?
2> Will there not be a name for the consistency group created using the above commands?
3> When we export the LUNs to the host using a VVset, will the LUNs be presented to the host with specific LUN ID everytime?

Thanks in advance for whatever help you can provide me.

Regards,
Narasimha
