We have EMC TimeFinder installed on Windows and Unix Servers. Using
"EXEC TELNET" of CSI TCP/IP we send to the servers in order to execute
in the EMC box the following commands:

symmir -g catvsam establish -nop
symmir -g catvsam verify
symmir -g catvsam split -instant -nop
symmir -g catvsam query

This is not very nice but work.
