Error: "Clash between global and local profile name"

Cause

You tried to give the same name to both a QoS policy's local profile and a QoS global profile.
  • QoS global profile names must be unique
  • QoS policy local profile names must be unique within the policy, and different to the global profile name

You will trigger this error if you try to combine non-unique names. For example:

You try to create a local profile name that is identical to a pre-existing global profile name:

set policy qos profile <X> ...
set policy qos name <policy-name> shaper profile <X> ...

You try to create a global profile with the same name as a pre-existing local profile name:

set policy qos name <policy-name> shaper profile <X> ...
set policy qos profile <X> ...

Remedy

Rename either the QoS global profile or the QoS policy's local profile.
