If an SSID participating in a PPRC relationship needs to be changed, DSGUI/DSCLI should provide a warning when attempting a chlcu for an LCU participating in a PPRC relationship.

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

We encountered a hardware error starting a GM session where we had duplicate SSIDs between the source and target PPRC LSSs. To resolve this, we used the GUI to change the SSID on the target LSS. Although the change was successful it would have been nice to receive a warning that the LSS whose SSID was changing was in a PPRC session and the volume pairs would have to be removed and redefined.
