This presentation allows for two or more storage management servers to be
in an active high availability (HA) state for the same set of storage
devices and copy services relationships; rather than having a single
server be in an active HA state and the other servers being in a standby
HA state. This makes each HA server to be able to accept commands at any
time so that they will not have to issue a takeover command to a standby
server just to start issuing commands. This will also ensure that the
data replication pairs will continue copying data until an event of an
actual disaster; in which the active servers would then cause the data
replication to be suspended so that a consistent set of data is secured
on the secondary site.
