• The LU is a command device or a remote command device.
• The LU has been reserved by another workflow.
• The LU is a virtual volume.
• If the LU is an internal volume to which an external volume is mapped, the host I/O
suppression mode is enabled.
• Replication Manager is not aware of the pair management server that is identifying
the associated subsystem command device.
• A volume spanning multiple storage systems is selected.

• A copy group that belongs to the same cascade has been reserved by another
workflow.
• A copy group that belongs to the same cascade contains pairs of multiple copy
types.
• Replication Manager is not aware of the pair management server (on either the
primary or secondary side) that manages copy groups belonging to the same cas-
cade.
• A pair that has the same primary volume exists in a copy group belonging to the
same cascade.
• A copy group belonging to the same cascade has more than one primary or second-
ary subsystem.
• In a cascade configuration, the number of pairs in the parent group is less than the
number of pairs in the child group.
• If any group in the topology is a copygroup defined in storage.
