Pool FULL: Drain TDAT CKD fails in 5977

Hi,

Hi have a customer that have a VMAX200k with one pool (SRP_1) mixed (CKD and FBA).

The FBA side is at 90% and the CKD side is at 70%. We want to give some free space from CKD to FBA.

My plan is to deactivate some CKD TDAT volumes, after drain completes delete them, then create new TDAT volumes in FBA format and add them back to the POOL.

I didn't find the option to disable a volume (in SMC it was possible) in Unisphere for Powermax, so I went to CLI but:

C:\Windows\system32>symconfigure -sid 636 -cmd "disable dev FFFE7 in pool DG1_CKD10K, type=thin;" commit

Execute a symconfigure operation for symmetrix '000296700636' (y/[n]) ? y

A Configuration Change operation is in progress. Please wait...

    Establishing a configuration change session...............Established.

    Error occurred while Defining change number 1:

    The requested feature is not supported for this microcode or SYMAPI version

    Terminating the configuration change session..............Done.

The configuration change session has failed.

 

In the symapi.log:

How can I disable a TDAT CKD in 5977.1131.1131? I've tried SE v9 and v8.4 (that comes in MMCS).... but the same error appears (cfgVerifySetPoolDevi Management operations on pool devices is not supported for ucode >= 5977)

I think the command is ok, or maybe I'm missing something...

I algo tried with the "start drain" command with the same result...

Help please!
