Go to SolutionNew symcli server
Hi ,
Guess this is a silly question....
When we are trying to connect to a new DMX we obviously have to do cabling and zoning to the symcli server and the new DMX. How do you map, mask the vcmdb to this server?
I am asking this because if vcmdb is connected then we can think that it will act as a gate keeper and give the symm access to this server. With no Gate Keeper mapped and masked to the new server how is it going to communicate?

Thanks.575

If the box is brand new, you will see only the VCM .. its main feature is that it's always visible, regardless of masking in place. Since the VCM is also a GK (at least with recent DMX3/4) you'll automagically see a gatekeeper that you can use to manage your storage.
So if the storage is new, you zone a FA to the server and the server will automagically see the VCM. Via the vcm you mask other devices to the same host or to different hosts ...575
