Converting Thin devices to RDF1

I am trying to convert a TDEV to RDF1 device using the command set "convert dev 777 to RDF1+TDEV, ra_group=3, remote_dev=888, invalidate=R2, start_copy=yes;" but I am getting error

Error occurred while Defining change number 1:

The feature being requested is not currently licensed

Both source and target will be thin devices and we are using SRDF Async . Please suggest

i am 99.9% sure you are using dynamic SRDF

create a file that contains source device in one column and target device in another.

symrdf createpair -file dyngrp_xxxxxxx -sid yyyy -rdfg xx -type rdf1 -invalidate r2

symrdf -file dyngrp_xxxxxxx set mode acp_disk -rdfg xx

symrdf -file dyngrp_xxxxxxx establish -rdfg xx

when replication gets close to completion

symrdf -file dyngrp_xxxxxxx set mode async

HI Ashish,

When you first create a SRDF pair, it goes to SRDF Sync mode by default. You need to explicitly provide rdf_mode async option while creating the pair (From the error I am assuming that you dont have SRDF/S license).
