Cannot suspend RDF group

HI

I'm trying to suspend the RDF group which is in ACP_Mode using force flag its not allowing me to suspend the RDF  state. Its throwing below error.

Cannot proceed in the current RDF state except if the Symmetrix force flag is used. Note that the Symmetrix force flag is not allowed to be used by default in RDF control operations



Can some one help me out on this situation. i just want to suspend the RDF group and later i can delete the pair and will do a clean up operation.

The reason for the extra precautions required to suspend the RDF group is that you will have invalid tracks on the R2 devices. By suspending RDF in adaptive copy mode with invalid tracks, you are in effect producing a corrupt R2 image. The command line makes you work a little harder to get yourself into that position :-)

You can avoid the symforce if there are no invalid tracks on the R2.
