Creating vNIC with multiple IP addresses using DR-IP-CUSTOMIZER? Duplicate IP address error.

We have one Windows 2003 server that has multiple IP addresses on a single vNIC that we are using with SRM. So far I'm not able to import the customization specification .CSV file with multiple IP addresses on a single NIC. Adding it with a single IP address and multiple DNS servers works, but multiple IP address does not work. Here's my .CSV file snippet:

VM ID,VM Name,Adapter ID,MAC Address,DNS Domain,Net BIOS,Primary WINS,Secondary WINS,IP Address,Subnet Mask,Gateway(s),DNS Server(s),DNS Suffix(es)
shadow-vm-5765,SERVER1,0,,,,,,,,,,
shadow-vm-5765,SERVER1,3,,domain.com,enableNetBIOS,10.30.2.13,10.30.2.10,10.30.2.13,255.255.255.0,10.30.2.1,10.30.2.13,
shadow-vm-5765,SERVER1,3,,,,,,10.30.2.25,255.255.255.0,10.30.2.1,10.30.2.10,
shadow-vm-5765,SERVER1,3,,,,,,10.30.2.26,255.255.255.0,10.30.2.1,,

Here's the tail end of the output of the command:

Error on line '4' for VM with ID 'shadow-vm-5765': Duplicate IP Address entry.

Should this work? Do I have something wrong in my .CSV syntax?

Where were you able determine the Shadow VM ID string? After I setup the Protection Group a folder with the same name as my Protected Server i.e. SERVERNAME gets created, however this errors out with:

The Shadow VM with ID "SERVERNAME" does not exist, please check your CSV file to make sure that it is up to date

Many Thanks in Advance for you help
