Resolution Cause
This is a configuration issue. It may happen due to several reasons:

  • While configuring manually ESXi host objects in the Storage System that corresponds to ESXi host in vCenter, the user added initiators of several hosts in vCenter to one host in the Storage System.
Solution
  • Compare host configuration in PowerStore with corresponding host configuration in vCenter and correct any inconsistencies.
Note: It is allowed to create several host objects in the Storage System, that corresponds to one ESXi host in vCenter only in case if they have different initiator types.
