Two things to check:  1. Are the same SYMAPI Licenses applied to both systems ?  Compare the \symapi\config\symapi_licenses.dat files on both hosts  You can just edit the file to add them if any are missing.  2. If you mean that on the linux host a "symrdf -g query " command doesnt work, that is because the device group configuration is local to each host unles you enable the "Group Name Service" daemon.  Do a symdg list on each host and compare the output.  If the linux host has no device groups defined, then that is your answer.  You need to make the device groups on every host you plan to run symrdf, symmir or symclone commands from as the device group definition is held in the local SYMAPI_DB.BIN file on each host.  Alternatively if you want all hosts to see the same device groups, you can use the GNS daemon which moves the group definitions to the symm itself.  Glen.
Hi all,  I am using one windows and one linux host to query vcmdb and make scripts for various everyday tasks. I'm interested why some commands don't get executed on linux host, e.g. symrdf or symdg, whereas on windows all commands work.  I didn't set any security who can execute commands against Symmetrix box, so I'm interested what is the reason for linux half supported commands?
