Hi Nordic teams,
I'm trying to integrate the DFU function into light_switch example this days. At the beginning, I used the dfu example to update my evaluation board, and it works fine (My evaluation board is starting blinky).
I encountered some issues when I'd integrated the dfu function. For more reliability, I use two files which are identical framework except the RTT logs and advertising name. At the first updating, device send the correct RTT log and advertising name. At the second updating, device only send the correct RTT log but not to start advertising. I can make sure that the parameter of application version is higher than current one. According to the logs in second update, I can confirm that device is already update. Why dose device is unable to advertise?
My environment as below
SDK: Mesh SDK 3.2
Softdevice: S132.6.1.1
Quantity of source role: 1
Quantity of target role: 2
The scripts on source role:

This issue occurred twice. Dose the DFU overwrite the flash contains application data or unprovisioned state?
