Export from Symmterix for Lun Assignment
Hi Guys, do you have any idea if there is a way to export some DB from symmetrix DMX . I have only symcli access and nothing on ECC.I am basically trying to build a list of Luns, capacity , hosts connected (WWN/Hostname ) in some sort of excel or csv format.I know something can be done with scripting but my scripting skills are as good as none Can anyone suggest what I could do ?Regards - Rahul

if you want to copy the db from symm then you can copy the symapi_db.bin file and access this db for offline access. Your other question regarding the luns connected to host is bit tough to find out, the command suggested by elearning will tell you if the masking exist for a host or not but it does not guarantee if the LUN is visible to the host. So finding it is not straight forward using CLI.

Thanks Guys for jumping in...I know all these commands and was being lazy of the manual work and scripting. Now I got some script which does some awk, grep ,print and put it under pearl script and i guess , I got almost what I wanted . Took time to do this but seems like On Storagescope , we have some reporting tool and ofcourse it is licenesed
so I don't have access to it . Anyways thanks a ton for taking time out to write. Cheers --- Rahul
