Terry,
Thanks very much for your help. This solved the issue.
Can't believe it was a simple case of a shell
variable. Neither EMC
Support nor Sun Support could solve this all last
week! Don't think it
is documented anywhere either.
Thanks again for your help. We're on our way to now
configuring the
Storage Node from the GUI.
Prasad.
