hello

so

3par 8400 2 nodes
HPE 3PAR OS version

2020-07-30 11:08:25 MSK Updated PD 13 Devtype FC chunks free 950 total 1675 utilization 43%
2020-07-30 11:08:25 MSK Updated PD 14 Devtype FC chunks free 1242 total 1675 utilization 25%
2020-07-30 11:08:25 MSK Updated PD 16 Devtype FC chunks free 951 total 1675 utilization 43%

How are they physically installed? If the hardware is unbalanced, the chunklets will be unbalanced.

What are your CPGs configured like ? Have you restricted CPGs to particular disks ? Got an odd CPG config ?

I still find that very weird. AO works per node pair, not node. So the utilization should be equal on all drives in the same cage.
