When proposing a Primera array and ensuring high availability with an existing HPE 3PAR array, there are specific RMC (Recovery Manager Central) Peer Copy prerequisites that need to be addressed:
* Check that the 3PAR OS version is supported (Option D): It is crucial to verify that the HPE 3PAR OS version is compatible with the RMC version being used. Incompatibility between the OS versions can lead to failures in replication or other high availability features.
* RMC 6.2 (Option F): RMC 6.2 is the required version for ensuring compatibility with the features necessary for Peer Copy between Primera and 3PAR arrays. Ensuring that this version is installed and correctly configured is essential for successful implementation.
These prerequisites help ensure that the high availability setup between the Primera and 3PAR arrays functions correctly and that the data protection mechanisms are reliable.
