 In PowerMax, each RAID group is divided into 64 logical blocks known as TDATs (Thin Device Addressable Tracks). Each TDAT is configured to hold data at a given data reduction level, from 1:1 uncompressed data all the way to 16:11. References: Data Protection Schemes | Dell PowerMax: Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability | Dell Technologies Info Hub

 In a SRDF/Metro deployment in a clustered host configuration, when the RDF link state is partitioned and the R1 side has full read/write capability to the application, the R2 device also has full read/write capability to the application. With SRDF/Metro, both R1 and R2 devices may then appear as a single virtual device across the two SRDF paired arrays for host presentation. With both the R1 and R2 devices being accessible, the host or hosts (in the case of a cluster) can read and write to both R1 and R2 devices with SRDF/Metro ensuring that each copy remains current, consistent, and addressing any write conflicts which may occur between the paired SRDF devices23. References: Dell EMC PowerMax and VMAX All Flash: SRDF/Metro Overview and Best Practices, Deploying Dell EMC SRDF/Metro Smart DR with Microsoft SQL Server for Physical and Virtual Environments

The symstar halt command is used to write disable devices and synchronize SRDF data to remote sites in an SRDF/Star configuration. This command ensures that all sites have a consistent copy of data before switching the workload site from one site to another. Therefore, the symstar halt command should be used before the workload switch in case of a disaster at the workload site of an SRDF/Star configuration1
