SmartTask's issue on the R81.20 for "Session Name Lenght" (probably a bug)

patones1 — Sun, 07 May 2023 17:05:38 GMT

Hello,

One SmartTask's script which used to work on the version R81.10, is not working correctly in the R81.20

It is about the script to run before publishing that will force to write a session name with more than 20 characters :

#!/bin/bash
namelen=`echo $1 | base64 -id | jq -r .session.\"session-name\" | wc -c`
if [[ $namelen -le 20 ]]; then
printf '{"result":"failure","message":"Session name should be at least 20 characters"}\n'
exit 0
else
printf '{"result":"success"}\n'
exit 0
fi

So everything looks right when I write a session name of less than 20 characters. I will use the default session name :

As usual, the publish operation failed :

Then, I wrote a session name of more than 20 characters :

Surprise. I got the same error :

I tested the same in a R81.10 and the result with a session name of more than 20 characters, was the spected one :

It looks like there is a bug on the R81.20 version

I will try to update the SMS with the last jumbo.
If you have no news, it means that the update did not work.

Have a nice end of the day

Is this for one of the CCSE class lab exercises?

I can try this in my R81.20 jumbo 10 lab tomorrow. So you just added new smart task to run this script, thats it?

It is the script of the CCSE lab. The good one.
I wonder if they have change it for the R81.20

Yes. It needs to be run twice.
Once with a session name of less than 20 characters. (it will work)
And then with more than 20 characters. (I hope that with the Jumbo10, it will be able to publish).

@patones1

I just tried it in R81.20 lab and it was exact same issue as you described.

It looks like is the second part of the script that R81.20 doesn't see :

else
printf '{"result":"success"}\n'

That's normal and expected behaviour.
The first publish simply activates your SmartTask, not matter what is configured to perform.
Afterwards the SmartTask is ready for use.

The first publish simply activates your SmartTask ....

This is obvious. My testing is after activating the SmartTask by publishing first.

Then I make changes and publish each change (once with session name of less than 20 characters and the other with more than 20)

You didn't get what I wanted you to test with my SmartTask examples.

Step1: Please go to this SmartTask and try if it works for you

Step2: If step 1 works as expected, please change "session-description" to "session-name" and adjust the message accordingly. Test again and tell us your result.

Thx, please comment this in the SmartTask as well.

Hello Champion,

I had tried your script before writing my post. It worked for the session description of less than 20 characters. But when entering a session name with more than 20 characters, the results were same that when using my script

My unaltered script won't work to verify your demand for session name length verification.

- I load your script,"Session-Description", in the Script Repository.
- I create the smartTask "Session-Description"
- I publish the smartTask operation.
- I make a change on a policy and I publish with a session name of less than 20 characters

You need to adjust it first as in this example:

test `cat $1|jq -r .session.\"session-name\"|wc -c` -le 20 && echo '{"result":"failure","message":"Session name should be at least 20 characters"}' || echo '{"result":"success"}'

Hello Danny,

Yes, you are right. I was testing too fast without modifying the script.

The script works perfectly. When I write a session name of more than 20 characters, It executes the result:"success" as it should do.

Thanks a lot and sorry for the misunderstanding.
