VMS Help SET, DEVICE, Qualifiers, /SITE *Conan The Librarian |
/SITE=n {DSAnnnn: | ddcu:} (Alpha/Integrity servers only)
Indicates to the shadowing driver the site location of the
specified shadow set (DSAnnnn:) or shadow set member (ddcu:). If
the member is removed from the shadow set and later is returned,
this qualifier must be specified again.
The SHADOW_SITE_ID system parameter defines the default site
location of the shadow set. You can override the default location
of the shadow set with the /SITE qualifier.
The valid range for the site location, represented by n, is 1
through 255.
After you apply this qualifier, the setting remains in effect
until you change it either with this command or with the SET
SHADOW/SITE command.
This qualifier can improve read performance because the member
that is physically local to the system will be the preferred disk
from which to read, provided that you specify the /SITE qualifier
for each shadow set member and for the shadow set. (In a Fibre
Channel configuration, shadow set members at different sites
are directly attached to the system. For the Volume Shadowing
and cluster software, there is no distinction between local and
remote in multiple-site Fibre Channel configurations.)
