You can create another device file with the same set of devices and use that to query and terminate.

The remove devices have been deleted by some one in my team.
But I am not able to delete control device.
I have created new devices in the remote array and created device file with the existing control devices and newly created remote devices.
I have attempted to create but it didn't done
I have attempted to terminate and remove but it didn't accept (used force option also).
Can you please suggest me in this.
Thank you

The control device is a part of Symmetrix config session, in order to release it , you need to terminate the session properly, offcourse you cant do it as you have already deleted the remote device, only way is to raise a support case with EMC and they can terminate the session from symwin and free up the control device from Config session.
