Yes you can please review the following


Static Priority Mode

If
no quorum server is configured or the quorum server is inaccessible,
HyperMetro works in static priority mode. When an arbitration occurs,
the preferred site wins the arbitration and provides services.

  • If
    links between the two storage systems are down or the non-preferred
    site of a HyperMetro pair breaks down, LUNs of the storage system at the
    preferred site continue providing HyperMetro services and LUNs of the
    storage system at the non-preferred site stop.

  • If
    the preferred site of a HyperMetro pair breaks down, the non-preferred
    site does not take over HyperMetro services automatically. As a result,
    the services stop. You must forcibly start the services at the
    non-preferred site.

If you power off the storage system at the preferred site for maintenance (by choosing download?uuid=5d6e70835b5e404fb42af3f54765d462 > Power Off Device on DeviceManager), the storage system at the non-preferred site takes over all HyperMetro services without interruption.

The following example uses DC A as the preferred site and DC B as the non-preferred site. Table 2-1 describes the arbitration mechanism in static priority mode.

In the following table, if two faults occur in the system, the interval between the faults is less than or equal to 60 seconds.
