Cause

There is at least one software resource that was created as two different types.

Resolution

To resolve this we need to identify the problem software.

The following query can be used in a report or run from SQL Management Studio to isolate the Software Resources that are causing the problem.

SELECT r.Guid, r.Name, rt.Name
FROM vRM_Resource_Item r
JOIN ResourceType rt ON rt.Guid = r.ResourceTypeGuid
WHERE r.Guid IN
(
SELECT IR.Guid  
FROM ItemResource IR   
JOIN ResourceType     RT ON RT.Guid = IR.ResourceTypeGuid  
WHERE RT.ClassGuid NOT IN('395AF97C-09DE-435f-96FF-C386F2B38FB2', '043EDFB8-6A1D-4699-9EE8-BA9CCCBDE442','9B0E3088-FF66-4114-ABC7-C748E58F9CAD')  
GROUP BY IR.Guid
HAVING COUNT (IR.Guid) > 1
)
 
The Software Resource can then be exported, deleted and imported back to resolve the problem.
