24.5.4 Establish FlashCopy relationships
The next step is to create the FlashCopy relationship between the B volume and the C
volumes at the remote site; note in Figure 24-10 the particular attributes for FlashCopy

Depending on whether you connect to the remote site or to the local site, the FlashCopy
command is either directly issued to the remote storage disk subsystem or via an inband
command. The inband command is targeted to the local primary volume, and provides
addressing information for the FlashCopy source and target volumes at the remote site.
Example 24-25 shows an inband ICKDSF job example under the assumption that usually
there is no host connection from the local site to the remote storage disk subsystem, which
may reside on another continent.
