Error CLSGPNP_DUPLICATE trying put profile

This errors is generated when you are trying to put a profile using gpnptool.

To fix it, firstly open the profile.xml file. The location of this file is at:
$ORA_CRS_HOME/gpnp/<server name>/profiles/peer/

There is a line for ProfileSequence and the value of it defines the current settings. This error heppens when the current setting of ProfileSequence in the profile.xml file is same as the setting in the new file you are trying to put.

Hence to fix it, increase the setting of -prf_sq input in gpnptool command to be higher.
For example:
I am putting a file called /u01/app/11.2.0.3/grid/gpnp/testserver/profiles/peer/profile.xml.new. My current value for ProfileSequence in profile.xml is 3. Hence, the value for -prf_sq parameter should be 4
# ./gpnptool edit -p=/u01/app/11.2.0.3/grid/gpnp/testserver/profiles/peer/profile.xml.new -o=/u01/app/11.2.0.3/grid/gpnp/testserver/profiles/peer/profile.xml.new -ovr -prf_sq=4
# ./gpnptool sign -p=/u01/app/11.2.0.3/grid/gpnp/uatwlgdb001/profiles/peer/profile.xml.new -o=/u01/app/11.2.0.3/grid/gpnp/uatwlgdb001/profiles/peer/profile.xml.new -ovr -w=cw-fs:peer
# ./gpnptool put -p=/u01/app/11.2.0.3/grid/gpnp/uatwlgdb001/profiles/peer/profile.xml.new

The error should not happen now.
