Error when using Import/Export script - not in singular_to_plural_dictionary[client.api_version]

[Andrew-OCD]

Dear Check Mates,

I recently uploaded the latest version of the following files:-

ExportImportPolicyPackage-master

cp_mgmt_api_python_sdk-master

to my MDSM and when I try to use the import_export_package.py I am getting the following error on a relatively simple policy.

This is the error I get returned:-

Exporting Access Control layers

Exporting Access Layer [TEMPLATE-FWOT001-Policy Network]

Retrieved 14 out of 14 rules (100%)

Traceback (most recent call last):

KeyError: '2.0.1'

This is the output I get in the import_export.log:-

Checking existence of package [TEMPLATE-FWOT001-Policy]

Exporting Access Control layers

Exporting Access Layer [TEMPLATE-FWOT001-Policy Network]

##Show presented object of type RulebaseAction with name Accept

##Show presented object of type CpmiAnyObject with name Any

##Show presented object of type host with name BROADCAST

I have tried to perform this export with multiple policies and I get the same error message.

Has anybody else seen such behaviour and can suggest a course of action to track down the fault? 

Thanks

Hi @Andrew-OCD 

I will forward your post to the relevant owners in R&D to see if they can help

Thanks

Dear,

I have been doing some further checking on this topic and found out that even if I create a simple policy which only contains nothing other than the default Clean up rule Any Any Block it fails in the same way.

This really looks like something very fundamental that has got broken when the addition of the api version 2 & 2.0.1 was added to the package.

I also note that this problem was logged as an issue in April when someone was asking about version 2.0.1 support.

In the meantime does anybody have a suggestion how I might go about performing this type of function manually?

Best Regards

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Please check you're really running the latest version of the tool from the master branch — it works for me with a management API version 2.0.1.
