StorWize v7000 Cascading Remote Copy Operations

Storewize v7000 Remote Copy target volume to be used as a remote copy source volume on a second remote copy. I believe this is referred to as cascading remote copy operations. This will enable v7000 volumes to be copied to multiple SANs to facilitate multi-homed disaster recovery situations. This is actually defined in the v7000 7.2 Redbook, but appears to be an error as it is not an allowed configuration.
