All EMC symcli commands are taking a long time
HI All,
All the EMC symcli commands are taking a long time to give the output in the server.
For example, below command takes about 7 to 8 minutes.
/usr/symcli/bin/syminq
btprod@DIC:/ # uname -a
HP-UX btprod B.11.11 U 9000/800 1396970935 unlimited-user license
Kindly let me know if any further details are required and how to fix this issue.
Thanks in Advance!

Re: All EMC symcli commands are taking a long time
2. What SYMCLI version you got?
3. Did you try cleaning up old DB files/removing lock and symcfg discover to check if it helps.(most of the time this will fix)
/var/symapi/db # ls -ltr
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 10694724 Jan 13 01:11 symapi_db.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 0 Jan 13 01:11 symapi_db.bin_xlock

2. #symcfg discover (give it some time to complete)
3. #ls -ltr (just to see they are created again)
4. #syminq, sympd list to check if its resolved.

Re: All EMC symcli commands are taking a long time
I did that, files were re-created but the problem seems to be still there.

Re: All EMC symcli commands are taking a long time
Did you recently upgrade SolEnabler? You might try stopping the agents on this server and reinstalling them from the ECConsole.
Regards,
Rita

Re: All EMC symcli commands are taking a long time
I know I'm late to this particular party, but for the sake of Googlers, this issue can sometimes be seen when using a version of Solutions Enabler that supports IPv6 (I think that got added somewhere in the version 6.X era, but I don't remember off the top of my head).
Make sure there is an 'ipnodes' database listed in nsswitch.conf. (http://nixdoc.net/man-pages/hp-ux/man4/nsswitch.conf.4.html). Basically, the Solutions Enabler commands that support IPv6 try to make some call that tries to resolve an IPv6 name, but with no way to do they just hang until something times out.
There's a knowledgebase article on EMC's Powerlink about this, but I don't have access to Powerlink right now in order to look it up.
