Seems that one of the devices u have is missing some configuration or is not compatible , not sure if its a hdd , are u having your array working probably ?  if yes then its just an informational message other than that you would be having some critical issues and you should look into it , i suggest you do its really not that hard to check it .

If you need further help let me know

Best regards

Yours, Oscar

This is ignorable and merely states that for this device, the specific SATP rule "VMW_SATP_DEFAULT_AA" does not support device configuration and is a default rule set for a device set to LOCAL

As this is an FC LUN, you might want to create a custom claim rule to set the device to a specific multipathing policy
