Looking for Microcode version
Hello Experts,
All of us know that when we run the below command we get the detailed output.
symcfg list -sid xxx -v
Symmetrix ID: 00029010xxxx
Time Zone : EST
Product Model : DMX3-24
Symmetrix ID : 000290101xxx
Microcode Version (Number) : 5772 (168C0000)
Microcode Date : 06.26.2009
Microcode Patch Date : 06.26.2009
Microcode Patch Level : 101
...........................................................................
I want to look deeper at the Microcode Version in detail as 5772.aa.bb using SYMCLI command
where aa is code level running for service processor
bb is code level running on Directors od the symm
Can anybody help me out please?
PS: correct me if I'm wrong for aa and bb for SP and Directors ...not sure which one is for SP or Director
Thanks,
BMK

Thanks for clarifying,
But i guess there is no code 5775.aa.bb - correct me if I'm wrong here, ignore if you have given the reply as example
The ucode thats used for DMX-4 ends at 5773 and there's 5874 for V-Max series
Cheers,
BMK

OK, I got it sorted out.
One needs to use the command
symconfigure -sid xxx -version -v
to list complete ucode version
Can anyone still focus on on aa and bb in 5772.aa.bb .....which one is for SP or Director
Thanks,
BMK

The way the code is formatted it works like this.
5773 134 94
5773 - "family"
134 - code loaded into array
94 - Symmwin code running on service processor

This makes things more clear now. What is important to note here is "Symmwin code running on service processor". Symmwin is tool used to execute uProcessor based commands on Symm's backend.
