When perform the plan migration with SRM, the SRA automatically created a single igroup on the recovery site with all the WWPN from all the ESXi servers (included all the CNA &amp;amp; HBA), this looks like &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class="Default"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; not follow the best practices of creating igroup?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class="Default"&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class="Default"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;2. Another issue will be after perform plan migration, re-protect, and if we would like to perform another plan recovery (or fail-back), it will fail because the LUN mapping at the destination still in place, the SRA which create the new dynamic igroup unable to perform the LUN mapping.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="color: #000000; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;Appreciate anyone can share your professional advice and experience on the integration as mentioned above.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="color: #000000; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;Regards,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="color: #000000; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;CL YAP&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="color: #000000; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
