Ensure that you are familiar with the user interface applications that support the EMC Symmetrix and Symmetrix DMX systems.
A basic EMC Symmetrix or Symmetrix DMX configuration is done by an EMC Field Engineer (FE) by using the EMC Symmetrix service processor. After the initial configuration, you can configure and control the exported storage. The FE defines the storage device types and sets the configurable options.
You can configure and control the exported storage by using the following interfaces.
You can use the EMC Control Center to manage and monitor the EMC Symmetrix and Symmetrix DMX systems.
You can use Volume Logix for volume configuration management. Use Volume Logix to control access rights to the storage when multiple hosts share target ports.
The EMC Symmetrix Command Line Interface (SYMCLI) allows the server to monitor and control the EMC Symmetrix and Symmetrix DMX.
