    one or al device pairs in a device group.

    symmir –g <group_name> -force –full establish


    establishes (mirrors) one or all standard devices in
    a device group with one or more BCV devices that are
    associated with the group.
    symmir–g <group_name> split splits one or all BCV devices from the mirror pair(s)

    mode of the specified tablespace objects.
    SRDF Commands
    symrdf –g <group_name> query returns information about the state of RDF
    mirroring of one or all device pairs in a device group.

    symrdf –g <group_name> establish resumes remote mirroring and initiates a data copy
    from source(R1) side to the target (R2) side.
    symrdf –g <group_name> restore resumes remote mirroring and initiates a data copy
    from target (R2) side to the source (R1) side.

    group.
    symrdf –g <group_name> -force failover switches data processing from the source (R1) to the
    target (R2) side.
    symrdf –g <group_name> update starts an update of the source (R1) side after a
    failover and while the target(R2) side may still be
    operational to its local host(s).
    symrdf –g <group_name> failback switches data processing back to the source (R1)
    side.
    symrdf –g <group_name> -v suspend <device_name>
    suspends I/O traffic on the RDF links for the
    remotely mirrored pair(s) in the group.
    symrdf –g <group_name> -force write_disable r1 <device_name>
    write disables the source (R1) device(s) to its/their
    local hosts.
    symrdf –g <group_name> invalidate r2 <device_name>
    invalidates the target (R2) device(s) so that a full
    copy can be initiated from the remote mirror.
    symrdf –g <group_name> resume <device_name>
    resumes I/O traffic on the RDF links for the
    remotely mirrored pair(s) in the group.
    symrdf –g <group_name> rw_enable r1 <device_name>
