Explanation / resolution
This can occur when the managed set in a GUI action or CLUI command contains one or more DR groups
whose remote replication I/O mode is set to asynchronous. Enabling the failsafe on unavailable member
would result in an invalid DR group configuration, so the action is failed.

Invalid DR group pair - source and source
Problem
Both groups in a suspended DR group pair are identified as the source group.
Explanation / resolution
If a DR group pair is suspended while the intersite links are unavailable, when the intersite links become
available again both DR groups are identified as the source. The source-source identification continues
until remote replication is resumed.
This can happen when:
•
The DR group pair is suspended while the intersite links were unavailable. See
•
The DR group pair is failed over with the suspend-on-failover action while the intersite links
were unavailable. See
•
Auto suspend mode is enabled while the intersite links are unavailable. See
