A copy group that belongs to the same cascade has been reserved by another
workflow.

At least one of the selected volumes does not belong to the same copy group.

A copy group in the same cascade contains pairs of multiple copy types.

Replication Manager is not aware of the pair management server (on either the
primary or secondary side) that manages copy groups belonging to the same cas-
cade.

A pair that has the same primary volume exists in a copy group belonging to the
same cascade.

A copy group belonging to the same cascade has more than one primary or second-
ary subsystem.

In a cascade configuration, the number of pairs in the parent group is less than the
number of pairs in the child group.

Any group in the topology is a copy group defined by device group.

The copy group names or the pair names of the groups involved in the same duplicate
configuration are different.

The copy pair names involved in a duplicate configuration are the same but the in-
cluded volumes are different.
