Please consider moving this question as-is (no need to recreate) to the proper forum for maximum visibility. Questions written to the users' own "Discussions" space don't get the same amount of attention and questions can go unanswered for a long time.
You can do so by selecting "Move" under ACTIONS along the upper-right. Then search for and select: "Symmetrix Support Forum".

Hello rstickalnd,
So this is the first time storage is being provisioned from the Symmetrix VMAX storage to the VPLEX. Assuming that the VPLEX has been zoned to front-end ports of the Symmetrix VMAX storage, all Symmetrix actions should be executed
from the management host (that has Solutions Enabler SYMCLI installed) connected through gatekeepers to the Symmetrix, or using a Symmetrix Management Console client.
i.e If you need to manage the VMAX behind the VPLEX, create gatekeepers and map,mask them to the management host, skipping the VPLEX.
Thanks ..
