Description

In the Node Management/Groups screen, if several Sub-categories have the same name, it will lead to an error when the Rudder Server configuration will be exported to another one.

For example:

Debian
|--Servers
|  -- Group A containing debian01.local.lan
 --Clients
   -- Group B containing debian11.local.lan
SLES
|--Servers
|  -- Group C containing sles01.local.lan
 --Clients
   -- Group D containing sles11.local.lan

After an export, on the other Rudder Server, the Groups C and D will not be present, any Rule depending on these Groups will display an Error and a message error will be in the /var/log/webapp/xxxxx.log:

[...]Ignoring Active Categor with ID 'yyyyyyyyyyyyy' because its name is 'Servers'  already referenced by category with ID 'xxxxxxxxxx'[...]

A workaround is to create another SubCategories, move the groups to them and then reexport.

In the first Rudder server the logs /var/log/rudder/weabapp/xxxx.log contains:

[...]
Auto-archive git failure when moving directory (not found in added file): 'groups/xxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx'. You can safelly ignore that warning if the files was already existing in Git and was not modified by that archive.
