## Symptoms

- * Setting or trying to show the automatic purge settings with the command "`mgmt_cli show automatic-purge`" fails with a "`duplicate objects`" error.

* Pre-Upgrade Verifier (PUV) fails with "`automatic purge verification`".

* Import or Upgrade fails when processing System Data domain with this error: com.checkpoint.management.coresvc.ValidationException: Automatic purge uniqueness violation

## Cause

Purge duplicates exist on the Management Server. The duplicates do not prevent the normal operation of Automatic Purge. However, they cause a validation error in the upgrade, which in turn causes the upgrade to fail.
