Dear All,
I have a Vmware SRM LAB setup with SRM 5.1 and netapp Simulator 8.1.2.
The setup is Implemented successfully and working fine.
I tested and do the recovery to the DR site. Recovery works successfully.
After that When I try to reprotect the site , the reprotect is getting failed, showing error as follows.

Is there any option to increase the timeout of array based storage replication?
But after sometime, if I tried to reprotect the site, it getting protected successfully.
please find the attached files for success and failure reprotect task.
