Odd errors in Equallogic log (Volume state transition is in progress)

We received a handful of errors for the same volume this morning, and I'm having trouble finding out what they mean.  

Not sure what volume state transition means.

Here are the messages:

What version of the firmware are you using?

This might be that you passed the connection per "pool' limit

v4.x and below connection limit is:

Groups with PS4xxx only

128 per pool (max two pools)

Group with Mixed Array groups

512 per pool (max 4 pools)

v5.x and above conneciton limit is

Groups with PS4xxx only

512 per pool (max two pools)

Groups with Mixed Array groups

1024 per pool (max 4 pools)

The total includes volume and snapshot connecitons.

If you are not at this limit, you can open a support case so we can take a closer look.

We are at 859 for the entire pool.  We are running firmware 5.2.5.

I guess my real question is, what does "Volume state transition is in progress" mean?  Is it that a volume is moving between members?  We have 5 members in this pool.
