Bug Description

This is regarding EMC VNX cinder driver EMCCLIFCDriver.

When a VM is deployed and if auto-registration is enabled, initiator groups are created and associated with storage groups. When such a VM is deleted, initiator groups are not de-registered.
This will cause problems when number of initiator groups reach maximum, and prevent any future deployments.

You can set the following parameter in cinder.conf to True if you want to always delete the storage group when no LUNs are in the storage group. In your case with PowerVC, when the VM is deleted, does it mean there will be no LUNs in the storage group?

# To destroy storage group when the last LUN is removed from
# it. By default, the value is False. (boolean value)
#destroy_empty_storage_group=false
