More than one PIM BSR rp-candidate in Nexus 10.2(6)

Hello,

I have 4 Nexus switches. I want one pair to be the RP for 239.30.0.0/16 and the backup RP for 224.100.0.0/16, and the other pair to do exactly the opposite.
This is the configuration I want to apply to the Nexus switches, with the same config but different priorities on the other ones:

ip pim bsr bsr-candidate loopback0 priority 49
ip pim bsr rp-candidate loopback0 group-list 239.30.0.0/16 priority 10
ip pim bsr rp-candidate loopback0 group-list 224.100.0.0/16 priority 20
ip pim log-neighbor-changes
ip pim ssm range 232.0.0.0/8
ip pim bsr forward listen
The problem is, when I enter the second "ip pim bsr rp-candidate" line, it just removes the previous one. It only allows me to have a single statement, so I cannot achieve what I want. Is this expected behavior or is it a bug?
If this is how it works, how could I accomplish what I want?

For the moment, what I did is have one pair configured with "ip pim bsr rp-candidate loopback0 group-list 224.0.0.0/4 priority 10" and the other pair with "ip pim bsr rp-candidate loopback0 group-list 239.30.0.0/16 priority 10". I do not like this approach.

Thanks, any help would be appreciated.
