## Symptoms

- After upgrading the Management Server to R75.30 or above, "`Name already used!`" error pops up in SmartDashboard when opening an object and trying to go to a different section.

## Cause

In versions lower than R75.30, it was permitted to create two objects of different types with the same name, but different capitalization (e.g., a gateway object called "`helloworld`" and a VPN community called "`HelloWorld`").

Starting in R75.30, it is no longer permitted to create multiple objects with the same name to avoid policy compilation conflicts.
