mtmmGDPS Support for MTMM Dual leg + GM With LCP

For Barclays to take advantage of logical corruption protection we would need GDPS to support to include Global Mirror into a GDPS Metro Dual leg environment. Currently this is not a GDPS supported configuration.

We would then use the Global Mirror secondary device for logical corruption protection (LCP).

    Low. Not currently applicable but may become so.

    HIGH. We already use the GM secondary for LCP in a GDPS/Metro single leg environment and would be good to see that could extend to the dual legs environment.

    LCP is becoming a major factor across the customer base. Supporting it in each configuration should be an important goal.
