PowerVC needs to handle VM state automatically after LPM

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

All VMs were in Active state

I did migration of client LPARs for CEC H/W upgrade using HMC, after
LPM, LPARs were in error state, I agree this part

After H/W upgrade, moved all LPARs back to the system and those LPARs still in error state. not changed the state.

I request you to provide a design change in PowerVC so that LPAR/VM state should be managed by PowerVC automatically after migration (LPM) by HMC.

    PowerVC does periodically sync its VM states based on information from the HMC and/or NovaLink. If this is not working properly, please open a PMR and the problem can be troubleshoot via those channels. PowerVC does aim to maintain eventual consistency (i.e., it can take 5-10 minutes to sync up in large environments) if changes are made outside of PowerVC.
