The issue can be resolved either by deleting all of the Global Mirror or Metro Mirror relationships or consistency groups that exist with a cluster whose partnership is deleted, or by recreating all of the partnerships that they were using.

The error will automatically fix when the situation is resolved.

• List all of the Global Mirror and Metro Mirror relationships and note those where the master cluster name or the auxiliary cluster name is blank. For each of these relationships, also note the cluster ID of the remote cluster.
• List all of the Global Mirror and Metro Mirror consistency groups and note those where the master cluster name or the auxiliary cluster name is blank. For each of these consistency groups, also note the cluster ID of the remote cluster.
• Determine how many unique remote cluster IDs there are among all of the Global Mirror and Metro Mirror relationships and consistency groups that you have identified in the first two steps. For each of these remote clusters, decide if you want to re-establish the partnership with that cluster. Ensure that the total number of partnerships that you want to have with remote clusters does not exceed the cluster limit. In version 4.3.1 this limit is 1. If you re-establish a partnership, you will not have to delete the Global Mirror and Metro Mirror relationships and consistency groups that use the partnership.
• Re-establish any selected partnerships.
• Delete all of the Global Mirror and Metro Mirror relationships and consistency groups that you listed in either of the first two steps whose remote cluster partnership has not been re-established.
• Check that the error has been marked as fixed by the system. If it has not, return to the first step and determine which Global Mirror or Metro Mirror relationships or consistency groups are still causing the issue.
