Issue

A situation of matching wwpn's on both controllers of an HA-pair can arise if a storage controller and its disks were at some point disconnected from its original partner node and then connected to another partner node. This typically never is done in practice but can occur. The problem occurs when using FCP cfmode single_image mode or when switching to single_image mode.
