Not sure what you mean by unused standard devices... Can you elaborate?

It depends on the interpretation of unused standards. Unused could be
2-Way-Mir or RDF1/RDF2 NOT mapped to a director...or...STD devices mapped but not given access by a HBA (assuming fabric) by VolumeLogix (assuming lun masking) To check for devices not mapped to a front end director use the following: (assuming Windows 2k...for Unix use GREP) symdev -sid symm number -noport list | find "2-Way-Mir" symdev -sid symm number -noport list | find "RDF1" To list the VCM Database (VolumeLogix) symmaskdb -sid symm number list database To find out if a mapped device is given access by VolumeLogix symmaskdb -sid symm number -dev device number list assignment ...this will return either not accessible or show you the WWN that has access. You should also become familiar with the SYMDEV command. Using this you can check device status (RW, NR, WD etc) To list devices: symdev -sid symm number list ....Note the status of the devices as you list. Hope this helps. Brian.
