Re: sysman io rebuild and EMC device configuration
$ MC SYSMAN IO SCSI_PATH_VERIFY
will remove devices which are no longer available. If you've reconfigured a device, follow this with
$ MC SYSMAN IO AUTOCONFIGURE
See
$ MCR SYSMAN HELP
and chapter 24 of the System Management Utilities manual for OpenVMS 8.3 at http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/83final/6048/6048pro_073.html#sysman_part.

Re: sysman io rebuild and EMC device configuration
Are you saying that doing an "IO SCSI_PATH_VERIFY" on a device (say a SAN lun) which is no longer available (i.e. no longer presented to the system) will remove it from the "show device" display??
Although I have never tried this explicitly, It is not my understanding, or experience. I am sure that at some point in the past I have executed the SCSI_PATH_VERIFY command when I had obsolete SAN units still being displayed, and I do not recall ever having seen these units removed from the display, at least not without rebooting the system.
If your comment is true however, I would be very happy since it is a real annoyance having these old units hanging around until is is convenient to reboot.

Re: sysman io rebuild and EMC device configuration
http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/84final/6048/6048pro_080.html#startsubcommand_480
"You usually enter the SYSMAN IO SCSI_PATH_VERIFY command after performing an online reconfiguration of a SCSI or an FC interconnect. The command reads the device type and device identifier on each SCSI and FC path in the system. If the device does not match the data stored in the IO database, then the path is disconnected in the IO database. Following a SYSMAN IO SCSI_PATH_VERIFY command, you usually enter a SYSMAN IO AUTOCONFIGURE command, which updates the IO database to match the new SCSI or FC configuration. "
Purely Personal Opinion

Re: sysman io rebuild and EMC device configuration
As I recall, the $ SHOW DEVICE display continues to list the drive, but it's no longer available and will immediately return an error on any mount or init attempt. This was up to 7.3-2.
The original question, "Can we make the $1$dga devices "go away" as far as VMS is concerned?" It depends on how you define "go away."

If not, hopefully you have a support contract in place.
