Verifying the relationship between storage systems

You can verify the relationship between storage systems.

Considerations

If the source and destination volumes in a volume copy operation reside on two different storage systems, these systems must have a trust relationship with each other. To specify each storage system as a trusted host of the other, complete the following steps.

Steps

By using FilerView or mounting the storage system with NFS, enter the destination system host name in the /etc/hosts.equiv file of the source system, if it is not present already. The /etc/hosts.equiv file contains a list of host names, each of which is on a separate line. The presence of a host name in this file indicates that the system allows that host to perform remote operations.
Repeat Step 1 on the destination storage system, entering the source storage system host name in the /etc/hosts.equiv file, if it is not present already.
