Dell SRDF Introduction

PowerMaxOS or HYPERMAX OS

SRDF/A SSC sessions where both arrays are running PowerMaxOS or HYPERMAX OS have one or more Transmit cycles on the R1 side (multicycle mode).

The following diagram shows multicycle mode:

  • Multiple cycles (one capture cycle and multiple transmit cycles) on the R1 side, and
  • Two cycles (receive and apply) on the R2 side.
Figure 1. SRDF/A SSC cycle switching – multi-cycle mode
SRDF/A SSC cycle switching – multi-cycle mode

In multicycle mode, each cycle switch creates a new capture cycle (N) and the existing capture cycle (N-1) is added to the queue of cycles (N-1 through N-M cycles) to be transmitted to the R2 side by a separate commit action.

Only the data in the last transmit cycle (N-M) is transferred to the R2 side during a single commit.
