The output is for
symfast -sid xx list -tech EFD -demand -vp -v

its working as designed due to number of character limitation. One workaround is to use -v with your output. Could you please write the entire command which gives you this output? we may tweak commands with scripts.
e.g:
C:\Users\srohilla.ICI>
C:\Users\srohilla.ICI>symaccess list -type storage -sid 09 -v | findstr /C:_SG
Storage Group Name : Bronze_SG
Storage Group Name : FRA-B2GCUS01_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23101_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23102_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23103_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23104_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23105_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23106_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23107_SG
Storage Group Name : fra-pc-b23108_SG
Storage Group Name : Gold_SG
Storage Group Name : Silver_SG
Storage Group Name : VBLOCK_AMP_CLUSTER_SG

Koppuru,
You should be able to see the full names if you use the XML output... just add the "-output xml_e" flag to the command.
You can then try to either read the XML manually, parse it programmatically, or import it into Exel.
Thanks,
- Sean

Unfortunately No, however, you can open the XML with MS excel or openoffice and save the output as other formats--> CSV.
Do not open the XML with a text editor or a browser.
Hope it helps

Nope, Just add -v at the end of the command as koppuru mentioned above.

use
H:\>set SYMCLI_FULL_NAME=1
H:\>symsg list
..
Flags Number Child
Storage Group Name FMSL Devices SGs
-------------------------------------------
s_VMWARE01 .XP. 87 3
s_VMWARE_GOLD XXC. 87 0
s_VMWARE_PLATINUM .XC. 0 0
s_VMWARE_SILVER .XC. 0 0
verylooooooongnameeeeeee .... 0 0
This will give you full names output for SG, IG, MV, DG, CG etc. Much better than grepping the -v or xml outputs

Thanks bhalilov for the reply....
Even after setting SYMCLI_FULL_NAME=1 we are not able to get full name of the storage group for the below command..
symfast -sid xx list -tech EFD -demand -vp

SYMCLI_FULL_NAME is only supposed in the list command output for symsg, symdg, and symcg.
