Did you tried ping command from cli ?

symrdf ping -sid xxxx

and you should get the output as , "successfully pinged (Remotely) Symmetrix ID: 000xxxxxxxxxx

It was syncing before? if yes query to check the status of srdf.

I believe you can't troubleshoot with unisphere or smc.
Please proceed with Resume command. Tracks will start to sync.
issue might be with the network drop. hope DSE was not configured

To avoid this kind of issue when there is a network drop, please configure DSE.
Refer EMC article for further details of DSE

Is that a production volumes in replication or you're testing it?

From Network perspective check there should not be any issues.

Is the link is stable?

how many tracks have been showing as invalids?

how long this SRDF has been suspended?

Is there any network maintenance done in past 2days?

Do you have any SR opened for this issue?

Please let know how to check the DSE pool has free space or not in SMC or Unisphere?

please let know how to check the transmit idle or cache space is free or not in smc and unisphere?

1.Select the Symmetrix system.

2.Select Data Protection > Replication Groups and Pools > SRDF/A DSE Pools to open the SRDF/A DSE Pools list view.

3.Select the pool and click View Details to open its Details view.

4.Use the SRDF/A DSE Pool Details view to display and manage a TimeFinder/Snap pool. It contains Properties Performance Views, and Related Objects panels.
