updating S-VOL
An access error occurs on VTOC on T-VOL.
Expected data is not copied from S-VOL to T-VOL.
High
This problem occurs when all the conditions are met.
A. Establishing FlashCopy V2 relationship
B. Updating S-VOL by non-ECKD CCW, or a CCW that chains Read and
Write commands on one track (e.g. DX/LOC/RDD/LOC/WRD).

Changed Part
When the TrueCopyAsync S-VOL was also a ShadowImage pair volume,
the TrueCopyAsync pair was suspended by operation, and ShadowImage
pair status was changed to SPLIT. After that, when TrueCopyAsync pair
was resynchronized, SSB#1470,cca9,1479,cce3,cc91,cc94 occurred, and
the TrueCopyAsync pair was suspended.
Medium
This problem occurs when all the conditions are met.
1. M/F
2. A TrueCopy Async(z/OS) S-VOL is also a ShadowImage(z/OS) or
FlashCopyVersion1 pair volume.
3. The TrueCopy Async(z/OS) copy operation and the
ShadowImage(z/OS) pair status transition to Split take place concurrently.
* In the case of Quick Split, since the split processing is performed in the
background, the condition is until the pair is completely Split.

HDS Confidential
During SM installation of Cluster-1, the installation was failed by CUDG
detecting a hardware failure. After that, when SM was recovered by SM
dummy replacement, CHK3 frequent occurred and DKPs blockaded (SSB
EC=32fe). As result of this, LDEV was blocked caused by multiple DKPs
blockade.
Medium
This problem may occur when the following conditions A and B are all
satisfied or the following conditions A and C are all satisfied.
A. There is a parity group of RAID6.
B. When the SM installation or de-installation along with (i) or (ii) below
is failed by a SM hardware failure. As result of this, SM capacity between
CL1 and CL2 is different.
(i) 　Configuration of the CM capacity, or the number of LDEV's, or the
number of HDD's, or the number of the external VOL is changed.
(ii) Configuration is changed from the SM Standard configuration to the
SM High Performance configuration.
C. When the configuration is changed from the SM High Performance
configuration to the SM Standard configuration. (In this case , this problem
may occur without the SM hardware failure.)
