2.3 Intelligent Identity Pools
With versions prior to OME 3.4, the virtual identity assignment is unaware of possible conflicts. A conflict can
exist if another console has assigned virtual identity values that intersect with identities in pools defined in
OME.
In OME 3.4, if the console detects that a device already has virtual identities that intersect with pool definitions
in the console, then those virtual identities are marked as already “assigned” and not used in identity
assignment logic. If the virtual identities were already assigned out by the console before the externally
assigned identities were detected, the device with the duplicate identities is indicated as “In conflict”. Devices
with “In conflict” virtual identities can be brought out of conflict by deploying a new template to them.
The screenshots below show “In Conflict” virtual identities as seen in the identity pool usage screens.
