GetSupportedGroupOperations method of the CIM_ReplicationServiceCapabilities class

This method for a given ReplicationType returns the supported Operations on a GroupSynchronized association that can be supplied to the ModifyReplicaSynchronization method.

Syntax

uint32 GetSupportedGroupOperations(
  [in]  uint16 ReplicationType,
  [out] uint16 SupportedGroupOperations[]
);

Parameters

ReplicationType [in]

A value representing the ReplicationType.

SupportedGroupOperations [out]

An array of Supported group Operations. Abort: Abort the copy operation if it is possible.

Activate Consistency: Ensure all target elements of a group are consistent.

Activate: Activate an inactive or prepared source and target association.

AddSyncPair: Add elements associated via StorageSynchronized to source and target groups.

Deactivate Consistency: Disable consistency.

Deactivate: Deactives a source and target association. The writes to the target are deleted in the case of a snapshot.

Detach: Remove the association between source and target.

Dissolve: Dissolve the synchronization between two storage objects, however, the target element continues to exist.

Failover: Switch to target element instead of source.

Failback: Reverses the effects of failover.

Fracture: Separate target element from source element.

RemoveSyncPair: Remove pair of source and target elements from the source/target groups.

Resync Replica: Synchronize a fractured/split source and target elements.

Restore from Replica: Copy data from a fractured target back to source.

Resume: Continue an association that was suspended.

Reset To Sync: Change mode to synchronous.

Reset To Async: Change mode to asynchronous.

Reverse Roles: Make target the source and source the target.

Return To ResourcePool: Applies to Snapshot -- delete the target element and its replication association.

Split: Similar to Fracture, however, the provider needs to make sure wether there are pending I/O in transit before fracturing the connection.

Suspend: Stop the copy operations to the target element. Continue when the operations is resumed.

Unprepare: Causes the synchronization to be reinitialized and stop in Prepared state.
