In case someone comes across this error in the future, its an easy fix.

This link helps you to locate the duplicate accounts:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiracore/finding-duplicate-user-accounts-1079345620.html

and this link guides you to override the message if you want to keep the accounts

Here is an excerpt.

Explicitly allow some duplicate accounts

Some accounts may be duplicated on purpose. For example, duplicate Jira System Administrator accounts may exist in the Jira internal user directory to maintain administrative access to Jira in case any of the external directories fail.

You can configure the health check to ignore some duplicates by listing the usernames under the jira.security.duplicated.user.accounts advanced setting. Separate each entry with an ampersand. For example: jdoe&ssmith&fperez .

And here is the link

I hope this helps someone.
