CSM Console Messages Need to Show Correct Pair Direction

CSM log messages always show for example "Starting all pairs in role pair H1-H2" even if the start command was issued for H2-H1 instead. This can be very confusing and misleading when trying to check back and see what commands were issued and what was their result.

Response per support was:

"Site awareness is coded into the role pair in the GUI as well as session details, however the console would need some sort of logic implemented to update the direction of the role pair. Currently, it appears that the role is not 'site aware' for messages."

    Messaging has always included the role pair name which does not imply direction. This is the same id for a role pair that would display in other places like the CLI. We can look at potentially changing the messages to include a direction arrow but this could take some time given the number of messages that contain a role pair.
