SRM 5.0.1 Reprotect Not Working

$

I have my VMware infrastructure in place and working fine. I recently setup SRM 5.0.1 and have my vCenter servers linked. We have 2 EqualLogic arrays. All licensing is in place. Replication is working.

 

I have one LUN with one VM that I am testing with. I am using array-based replication and I have the SRA installed and configured. I can successfully "Test" a recovery plan and "Recovery" a recovery plan. I cannot "Reprotect" a recovery plan. I have tried making changes to the config on everything I can think of, I have removed and reinstalled a bunch of things but I keep getting the same failed result at the same place (step 1). The error I get is this:

 

Error - Failed to reverse replication for device  'iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-6d36aa101-acf001baf644f75a-carbon-syr-jsmith.1'.  SRA command 'prepareReverseReplication' failed for device  'iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-6d36aa101-acf001baf644f75a-carbon-syr-jsmith.1'.  Replicate back task failed or not started Use the Group Manager to check the  failback or replicate back task, remove the failed task

 

I cannot figure out what is wrong so if anyone can help it would be appreciated. I do not see anything in any logs that I can find. I am stuck and do not know where to look. Replication is enable for both inbound and outbound on both SANs. Not sure what to put up here so let me know what I can post to help.

 

Thank you.

 

 

To add moro information, this is from the report (screenshot attached):
