NOTE: Do not set the SYMCLI_SID and SYMCLI_DG environment variables before running the symcfg command. These environment variables limit the amount of information gathered when the EMC Solutions Enabler database is created, and therefore will not be a complete database.

Also, the SYMCLI_OFFLINE variable should not be set since this environment variable disables the command line interface.

Determining Symmetrix Device Names on Each Node

To correctly specify the device file names when creating Symmetrix device groups, be sure to map the HP-UX device files to the R1 and R2 Symmetrix devices. Use the following steps to gather the necessary information:

1.Obtain a list of data for the Symmetrix devices available, using the following command on each node without any options:

# syminq

Sample output from both the R1 and R2 sides is shown in Figure 40 and Figure 41.
