Trying to add network objects from bulk-file /CSV

[andersplarsson]

Hi,

Im trying to create Network-objects from CLi in management with this command:

>mgmt_cli add network --batch @storage-host/anders/GenesysCloudNW.csv

get this error message: 

" MGMT9000 code: "generic_err_missing_required_parameters"
message: "Missing parameter: [name]"

syntax in csv-file looks like this:

name,ip-adress,subnet-mask
GenesysCloud1,108.128.0.0,255.248.0.0
GenesysCloud3,34.240.0.0,255.248.0.0
GenesysCloud4,34.248.0.0,255.248.0.0
GenesysCloud2,3.248.0.0,255.248.0.0
GenesysCloud5,52.208.0.0,255.248.0.0
GenesysCloud6,52.48.0.0,255.252.0.0
GenesysCloud7,63.32.0.0,255.252.0.0

......

What is missing?  The name(s) is right there!?!?!?

Regards,

You're likely confusing hosts and networks in your syntax. Give a quick look at sk113078.

I´m sorry I do not see it, this is the syntax from the SK:

"#mgmt_cli add network --batch networks.csv" 

my syntax: "mgmt_cli add network --batch @storage-host/anders/GenesysCloudNW.csv"

Do I have to copy the file to the MGM-blade for this to work?

Try putting quotes around the items in Line 1.
You may have to do it for other lines in the CSV as well.

Are you sure it can get to the file, try to give it the explicit path to the file.

Message me offline, I can help you with this. I actually had case with TAC on this back in December. I will see if I can find the email on how we did it and email you tomorrow.

Faulty syntax in file I guess. This is how it should look like "name,subnet,subnet-mask"  but creating the file in vi instead. Still working on this batch halted with some duplicates and wrong subnet-mask. Still working on it
