Symmetrix composite groups
I would like to create a composite group from 2 existing device groups. Is there an easy way to do this?

If you still want to accomplish this in SE you can probably do an export of the two DGs and then manually edit the file before importing into the CG. This is likely the first thing I would try.
There are some commands for moving devices between CGs, and even between DGs in newer code) but I can't find anything to directly move from one or more DGs to a CG.
Anyone else have any great ideas?

Do you want to do this migration without affecting any RDF connections already in place, or are you OK with resynching everything from scratch?

symdg dg2cg DG1 CG
symdg dg2cg DG2 CG
This works fairly well and is what we use with our MSC Consistency Groups.
You can then remove the DG if you do not plan on ever using them though it is OK to have DGs and CGs containing the same devices on the same host and can be nice if you need to handle them differently.

I moved this thread to the Solutions Enabler forum because it is more focused on SE than ControlCenter.
