Steps to Reproduce

image
An exception occurred when I added multiple members to the virtual cluster
One member is located in 38U of cabinet N02, and the other member is located in 38U of cabinet N03. However, when I was adding members, a message was displayed indicating that the two members cannot enter 38U at the same time. I understand that the virtual cluster can distinguish devices in different cabinets.

The position field is the member's logical position within the virtual chassis, not it's physical position in a rack. The VC position is administratively assigned and must be unique for each member.
