Dell EMC Solutions Enabler 9.2 SRDF Family CLI User Guide

symcfg list -rdfg -metro

The -metro option replaces some information in the default display (shown in the previous section) with information specific to SRDF/Metro. These include:

  • Indication of whether the SRDF group was enabled for Witness or bias protection during the establish/restore.
  • Indication of whether Witness or bias protection is currently in effect.
  • SRDF groups that have Witness protection in effect, and the group is in the ActiveActive state, identify the witness array or virtual witness that they use.
NOTE:The symcfg list -metro command does not restrict group selection to Metro-related groups. It only selects the information that is output.

In the following example,

  • Group 115 on array 000197100084:
    • Contains SRDF device pars that are configured for SRDF/Metro;
    • Is configured to use Witness protection;
    • Is currently Witness-protected; and
    • The Witness array is 000197100087.
  • Group 116 on array 000197100084
    • Contains SRDF device pairs that are configured for SRDF/Metro;
    • Is configured to use Witness protection; but
    • Is currently using bias.
  • Group 117 on Symmetrix 000197100084:
    • Contains SRDF device pairs that are configured for SRDF/Metro;
    • Is configured to use bias; and
    • Is currently using bias.
  • Group 125 on Symmetrix 000197100084:
    • Contains devices that are configured for SRDF/Metro;
    • Is configured to use Array Witness protection; but
    • Its Witness protection is degraded (only one side can see the witness array);
    • The witness array is 000197100087
