P4000 Remote copy

Hi guys,
I have been playing with the P4000 in an SRM environment.
I performed a full failover and this changed the remote copies to primary. Now when i go to failback, and choose to schedule a remote snapshot back to the protected side, i get the error "This is a remote volume. You must change this to a primary volume before you can use i as a source schedule for remote snapshots"
What i dont understand is when i look at the details of the volume it says its a primary volume.
Any help would be appreciated.

thanks
DC

Guys,
I might of resolved this myself.
I used the Failovr/Failback wizard to promote the Remote volume to be primary.
I will come back to say if this resolved the issue.

Best Regards
