To identify the storage group the device associated with run the following command:
Symaccess �sid 96 list �type storage �dev XXXX

To get masking view details of the above storage group run the following command:
Symaccess �sid 96 show <sg_name> -type stor

To check device associated to any storage group run the following command:
symaccess -sid 96 list assignment -dev XXXX

Mapping new device to storage group:

symaccess -sid 96 -name VMAX2596_VPLEX0630_QA-DEV_SG2 -type stor add dev 52EA

Step1: create a volume( this will do the validation and confrim us) this is for a
single volume without meta
----------------------------------
symconfigure -sid 2596 -cmd "create dev count=3, size=1024GB, emulation=FBA,
config=tdev, dynamic_capability=dyn_rdf, binding to pool=(SATA);" preview

step2: commit
-----------------------

symconfigure -sid 2596 -cmd "create dev count=36, size=100GB, emulation=FBA,

config=tdev, dynamic_capability=dyn_rdf, binding to pool=(SATA);" commit

step3: adding the created devices to the storage group

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

symaccess -sid 2596 -type storage -name VMAX2596_VPLEX0630_PROD_SG3 add devs
