Hello All,

I'm having some issues setting up my SRM5 Lab, here is my config:

- VNX5300 (flare 05.32.000.5.006) - production site

- VNX5700 (flare 05.32.000.5.006) - DRsite

enablers:

- VNXSnapshots

- UnisphereBlock

- Snapview

- Mirrorview/S

VMware

- esx 5i 496512 * 2

- VCVA *

- SQL databases....

- SRM5

SRA's:

- EMC VNX Replicator for VNX SRA 5.0.12

- EMC Mirrorview Enabler for VNX 5.0.22

- EMC VNX SRA for VMware vCenter SRM 5 5.0.1

- Navisphere cli 7.31.33.0.41

- Solutions Enabler 7.2.1 (I know this is not needed, however it is installed as part of VSI?)

Setup:
