I have seen a few old attempts at scripting threads, but haven't seen any take off.

Anyone have any symcli scripts that they'd like to share?  I'll start off with this one.  "emc-maskrep".  This script uses symacces commands to document the masking views for a VMax.  Its written in perl, and uses the XML::Simple and Data::Dumper perl modules to parse the XML output of the symaccess commands.
