Okay, how can i see the host persona? Win2012 is in the drop down, but does that really Count?
The text field and the setting used to be completely separate but the current GUI tries to set both correctly when you pick the OS now.
For Rcopy it's worth getting used to the CLI commands as there are bits still a little messy in the GUI.
Code:
showhost -persona
Persona_Id should be 15 on both arrays, in the last column it lists ALUA, this is the scsi feature that is actually behind the Peer Persistence stuff.
Code:
showvlun -a
The last column (ID) is the 'Target Portal Group ID' or TPGID that the array is sending to the server.
1 = normal LUN
257 = source/active PP LUN
258 = copy/standby PP LUN
Code:
showrcopy groups
The group containing the VVs should be started and have at least "path_management" in the Options.
I've only got one test Windows box (2012R2) as all our hosts are VMware/Solaris so this bit is just what is working here.
In Computer Management/Disk Management look at the properties of the 3PAR LUN and go to the MPIO tab, Policy at the top think should be set to 'Round Robin With Subset'. In the Paths section you should see the 'active' paths from the source array (again with TPGID 257) and the 'Standby' paths from the copy array (TPGID 258).
It should all be working if that's correct.
HBA drivers/firmware, Windows hotfixes, 3PAR OS version/patches can cause issues if not at supported levels, the guides and HPE SPOCK site should cover all that.
