CMMNP5099E SAN File System label already exists on device variable_device. Use -f to overwrite the SAN File System label on variable_device.

Explanation

The SAN File System detected a label that recognizes the LUN (as represented by the device). It might be part of another SAN File System.

Action

Make sure that the LUN as represented by the device is not part of any SAN File System. Then, attempt to create the volume again, using the force option to have the SAN File System ignore the existing label.
