Re-Map Clone target devices to new Source devices

i would cancel your current session from the old R2 to clone and create new session from new R2 to clone. As you know both devices have to be of identical size.

Since symclone allows a SINGLE SOURCE to have MORE TARGET but -obviously requires to have a single SOURCE for EVERY TARGET, this is the only thing to do ..

Use symclone at first to terminate the previous relationship and later to create (and activate) the new relations...

Have fun

PS sorry Dynamox .. no strange commands to do this dirty work

All,

I have re-created the clone relationship by terminating, export the DG to a file, editing the file and importing again. Works great,

How ever

How do I export the group details to another server in the same cluster.
This is a RDF2 group which has a clone hanging off it in the remote array and when I use command symdg -sid xxxx -f filename export DG
I import the DG details using the above file and it has the group as REGULAR instead of RDF2.

I'm reading your post again and again .. but it's difficult to figure out what's happening ..

First of all I'll try to explain how you can keep a DG on multiple hosts..

1) the easy way (easy at first sight)
define the DG on a host, export the definition of the DG (symdg export) and copy the file on the other hosts .. import the DG on the other hosts. Works better if you have a little number of hosts and if they are connected to the same storage. If you need to export the DG to an host on a different storage, you have to modify the DG definition (the text file) before importing on the other host.

2) the better way (complex at first, easy later)
Use GNS

Now let's look at what you wrote.

You say that you want to export the same DG on another host in the same cluster .. What do you mean by cluster ?? Usually I call cluster a group of hosts that can see the same devices .. Later you talk about R2 devices .. This isn't simply a cluster IMHO .. I need to understand better how is your SAN layed out.

If you look at the content of the file that the "symdg export" created, you'll note that in the first line contains the serial number of your box. The first char of the line define the type of the DG .. the first char must be 1 for an RDF1 DG or 2 for an RDF2 DG .. what do you read in your file ??
