13.3 Issue: Object Already Exists Error

In your server log (server.log), you may see the following error:

Associated object already exists in database with GUID:...

Here are some common causes for this error:

  • The Data Collection Service driver was removed and re-added/ When you remove the Data Collection Service driver, you must also refresh the database. Otherwise, the new Data Collection Service driver will attempt to re-add the objects that already exist in the database.

  • There is an overlap in scope between two Data Collection Service drivers. They are both trying to synchronize objects in the database.
