Issue

When attempting to create an Array Pair using the Array Manager in SRM, SRM fails to discover the array resulting in the following:

SRA command 'discoverArrays' failed. Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) name not found in storage system. Please provide valid Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) name.

From OTV logs:

From SRM logs:

SRA command 'discoverArrays' failed. Peer array ID provided in the SRM input is incorrect. Check the SRM logs to verify the peer array ID.
