DESCRIPTION
Creates RDF protection for PowerMax volumes.This cmdlet will: a) For each given volume, a corresponding target volume will be created in the remote array. b) The RDF pairs will be created for the given replication mode, type and supplied option flags.
EXAMPLES
Example 1
PS C:\> New-RDFPair -Unisphere $unisphere -ArrayId 000123456789 -RDFGroup 18 -VolumeId 008B8,008C8 -Mode Synchronous -Type RDF2
Where $unisphere is a Unisphere server instance. Creates corresponding R1 volumes on remote PowerMax array associated RDF group 18 and then creates SYNCHRONOUS RDF protection with 008B8,008C8 as R2(RDF2 type) volumes.
