Cannot create a symclone create session

Hello,

While running the symclone command, i am receiving the below error :

# symclone create -tgt precopy

Execute 'Create' operation for device 'precopy'

in device group 'sumitdg' (y/ ) ? y

'Create' operation execution is in progress for device 'precopy' in

device group 'sumitdg'. Please wait...

   

Could not select requested device(s) from the specified device group

Below is the symld output :

# symld list

Device Group (DG) Name: sumitdg

DG's Type             : REGULAR

DG's Symmetrix ID     : 000192604026

Legend for TGT devices:

Can anyone please help out on what could be the issue. Does the '-' flag in the symld output causing the problem ?

aren't you specifying the wrong device group ? Should't it be "sumitdg"

Helo,

If my source device are normal devices, but target devs are showing RDF1_OR_RDF2_Capable, will it cause any kind of issue?

No, its not going to cause any problem. Something is not right in your setup. Can you please post the symsg show sumitdg output?
