Re: Replication issues

In Response To: Replication issues (Schleicher, Keith)

Keith
Don't know if any else has responded direct, or if you have resolved this
now ?
I would suggest in both cases (after you have checked the physical disks are
OK) is to switch both Primaries to Standard Mode then re-initialise HDR by
taking archives (make sure you resolve the tape size issue0 and restoring to
the secondaries.
You very limited about what actions can be undertaken on Secondaries and I
would look very carefully at your physical disk before doing anything as it
looks
suspiciously like you have some bad areas (head crash/corruption from the
power
issue).
