While taking snap on the server. (VMAX)

While taking snaps on the server they are not able to take it.

I checked on symsnap list for that array i dont see any disk what they are using.

And i dont see any device groups on that array.

    Is the pool enabled, does it have free space, and is it named DEFAULT_POOL?

    The first DEFAULT_POOL (the FBA pool) is the one you would use by default for TF/Snap, and in your case that pool is Disabled and does not contain any devices.
