Hi ,

We have a Symmetrix array an EMC 3930 which is direct attached and we cannot manage this box. We are trying to decomm this box , currently we believe that there is just 1 server connected to this box and need to verify that . But when we try to run below cmds , it gives us following errors :

root@genin01 [/opt/emc/SYMCLI/bin]
#./symcfg discover

This operation may take up to a few minutes. Please be patient...

No devices were found

root@genin01 [/opt/emc/SYMCLI/bin]
#./symcfg list

No devices were found

root@genin01 [/opt/emc/SYMCLI/bin]
#./symcfg -sid 1436 list -connections

The specified Symmetrix ID is unknown.

The powermt o/p shows all disks assigned and active to this server genin01 ,there are around 80 devices , e/g of one disk is below :

Pseudo name=hdiskpower0

Symmetrix ID=000183701436

Logical device ID=00C1

state=alive; policy=SymmOpt; priority=0; queued-IOs=0

  0 fscsi0                    hdisk2     FA  6aA   active  alive      0      0

  1 fscsi1                    hdisk54    FA 11bA   active  alive      0      0

What could be the problem that we cannot run any symcli cmds on this ?

Thanks,
