Verify the remote SYMAPI server configuration before you perform the device setup requirements. Set environment variables to test if the SYMAPI server is configured correctly.
To verify the configuration of a remote SYMAPI server
Do one of the following:
On Solaris, run the following SYMCLI commands to set the server's environment variables:
SYMCLI_CONNECT_TYPE=REMOTE; export SYMCLI_CONNECT_TYPE SYMCLI_CONNECT=DC1_SERVER; export SYMCLI_CONNECT symcfg list
On Windows, run the following SYMCLI commands to set the server's environment variables:
set SYMCLI_CONNECT_TYPE=REMOTE set SYMCLI_CONNECT=DC1_SERVER symcfg list
If you get an error in the output (instead of a list of the Symmetrix arrays), verify that your EMC Solutions Enabler is configured properly. If it is not configured properly, consult the EMC Solutions Enabler install guide for the commands. The install guide provides the detailed instructions on configuring the SYMAPI server and related commands.
