How to change Primary Symm agent to another client
Hello
I have two hosts that have symm and SDM agents installed, currently hostA shows as Primary agent for both symm and SMD, how can I change to hostB as Primary agent for both symm and SDM?

Hello
Currently there is no way to configure a Primary or Secondary status for a Symm agent. ControlCenter has it's own algorithm to determine which agent to use. If you do not want to monitor the Symm from that host but it has Solutions Enabler and a fibre connection, there are two ways to accomplish this. One is to create a Symmavoid file on the host which will keep Solutions Enabler from seeing the Symm. The other option is to modify the EGS.ini file with the following line:
symm_avoid_n = Symmetrix S/N;
(where n represents a unique number starting at 0, and the Symmetrix S/N represents the 12 digit Symmetrix S/N you wish to avoid discovering in ControlCenter).
I hope this helps.
