6.5.2 Set Eco-mode Schedule
On this screen, the schedule for Eco-mode operation can be set.
Assign the created schedule to the RAID Groups or Thin Provisioning Pools to enable the Eco-
mode
and activate the disk motor constantly during the specified term.
The following explains the setting procedures for the Eco-mode schedule.
The following functions can be set using this menu.
• Add Eco-mode Schedule
• Delete Eco-mode Schedule
• Change Eco-mode Schedule
Procedures for each operation are described below.
• [Set Eco-mode Schedule] sets the schedule for the active disk term.
• [OPC/SnapOPC/SnapOPC+]
When setting the Eco-mode for copy source/destination OPC, it is
necessary to activate the disks while executing the OPC due to OPC
features. Use the [Set Eco-mode Schedule] menu to ensure that the
disk motors are active whenever an OPC is in progress. If it is difficult to
schedule, do not set the Eco-mode to the OPC copy source and
destination. If the disk is deactivated, the OPC cannot be executed.
• [QuickOPC]
When setting the Eco-mode for copy source/destination OPC, it is
necessary to activate the disks while executing the OPC due to OPC
features. However, if the copy is in "Tracking" status (recording the
update), and the relevant volume is not accessed for a certain period of
time, the motor can be deactivated. Note that if the disk motor is
deactivated, starting a new copy or differential copy cannot be executed.
• When Resource Domains are registered in the ETERNUS DX400/
DX8000 series, Resource Domains to which the Eco-mode schedule
can be assigned differ depending on the current user account.
- When logged on using a Total Administrator account, Eco-mode
schedules can be assigned to all the Resource Domains.
- When logged on using a Resource Domain Administrator account,
Eco-mode schedules can be assigned only to the relevant Resource
Domain.
• When a RAID Group is not included in the Thin Provisioning Pool,
assign the created Eco-mode schedule to the RAID Group with the [Set
RAID Group-Eco-mode] menu.
• When a RAID Group is included in the Thin Provisioning Pool (TPP),
assign the created Eco-mode schedule to the TPP with the [Set Thin
Provisioning Pool-Eco-mode] menu.
