symconfigure: unmap devices : PREPARE error
SE 6.3.2
W2K3 SP1
I am trying to unmap a device. I run the preview successfully.
While running the commit, it will queue and then start retrying a few times at the the PREPARE requesting required resources step.
It will eventually fail. It doesnt leave any locks so it is cleaning up after itself.
Anyone seen this?

- Sometimes I see this too. There are a number of causes. The symapi logs are a great start in troubleshooting. When EMC dials in and does things, occasionally resources get locked. Check the modem and service processor activity. But this is just one of many possibilties.
If you try again, does it still happen? EdwinVanMierlo

As ironman said, please post the errors from the symapi log.
Also, are you trying to unmap VCMdb devices ?

Sorry group...
I should have posted the resolution.
Apparently, a script was left running on the service processor. Once that was no longer running the symconfigure command ran fine.vincent_corona

I've seen this happen if there is a hotspare kicked in as well. The new DMX-3 code 5772 apparently does not have this restriction any more.
