N/A: Not applicable.
NOTE: If the required configuration for the function in use is not set, the status might not be
acquired correctly in situations such as:
• While copying in the reverse direction, if Business Continuity Manager cannot issue any I/Os
to an S-VOL, the SWAPPING status will not be acquired correctly. If this happens, the pair will
be put in the SUSPOP status instead.
• While performing a Delta Resync on copy pairs, if Business Continuity Manager cannot issue
any I/Os to a P-VOL, the HOLDER, HOLDTRNS, and NODELTA status will not be acquired
correctly. If this happens, the pair will be put in the HOLD status instead.
Using the YKQRYDEV command to obtain the copy pair status of specified volumes
When the ISPF panel is used to display the copy pair status, the YKQRYDEV command is executed
for the P-VOL and S-VOL of the specified copy pair, and the copy pair status of each volume is
displayed. However, if the command is executed for volumes in a remote storage system when a
command device has not been defined, the copy pair status of the volumes in the remote storage
system is not displayed.
Table 14 (page 66) shows the volume statuses acquired in Continuous Access Synchronous for
Mainframe and Continuous Access Asynchronous for Mainframe, Table 15 (page 67) shows the
volume statuses acquired in Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe, and Table 16 (page 68)
shows the volume statuses acquired in Business Copy for Mainframe by using the YKQRYDEV
command. (Cnt Ac-S Z or Cnt Ac-A)

The copy pair is changing to the duplex status (during
an initial copy or resynchronization).
Duplex PendingPENDING (01)
Duplex status.DuplexDUPLEX (02)
The host has suspended the P-VOL.SuspendedSUSPOP (03)
The user has suspended the S-VOL. (The P-VOL has been
updated and the differential data between the P-VOL and
S-VOL is being recorded.)
SuspendedSUSPOP (04)
The user has suspended a copy pair in which REVERSE is
specified.
SuspendedSWAPPING (04)
The copy pair has been suspended because the secondary
storage system has received a suspend request from the
primary storage system.
SuspendedSUSPOP (05)
The copy pair has been suspended because the PPRC
FREEZE command is issued to the primary storage system.
SuspendedSUSPOP (0A)
The copy pair has been suspended because the primary
storage system has detected an error status on the
secondary storage system.
SuspendedSUSPCU (06)
The P-VOL has been suspended because the user dissolved
the copy pair from the S-VOL (changed to the SIMPLEX
status).
SuspendedSUSPER (07)
The copy pair has been suspended because the primary
storage system detected either an error during migration
