IMGR257E REG. ERROR: ELEMENT NAME ALREADY EXISTS AT:
C1G0506I ENV: ENV1 SYS: SYS1 SBS: SUBSYS2 STGID: P TYPE: TYPE2
This is an element registration error that is set in the system definition for SYSTEM SYS1 with the MSG LVL set to "E". The "E" level of duplicate name checking at the system level only allows one occurrence of an element name within the system. Because the element already exists in subsystem SUBSYS2 (based on the error message), it is not allowing you to add/update in subsystem SUBSYS1.
If you need both elements, Duplicate Element Name can be turned off or the MSG LVL can be switched to "C" or "W".
IMPORTANT: Element registration settings in the system definition panel need to be kept consistent in all the stages where the system is defined. Otherwise element registration may behave in an unpredictable way.
