network_resource module failing against specific resource modules #80008

Closed Gittins closed 1 year ago

Gittins commented 1 year ago

Summary

Using the ansible.netcommon.network_resource module against a working, from Ansible's point of view, network device (Cisco IOS, CSR1000V) fails when specific resource modules, that are known to be available for the device, are referenced.

The resource modules causing the failure have been identified as:

OS / Environment

Targeted network device info:

The below table collates the device's hardware information:

Manufacture Model Platform
Cisco CSR1000V IOS-XE

 

The following table collates the device's software information:

OS Image file
17.03.01a bootflash:packages.conf

Steps to Reproduce

Run the below playbook against the Cisco Always-On latest IOSXE device:

ciscoao_latest_iosxe: ansible_host: sandbox-iosxe-latest-1.cisco.com ansible_connection: ansible.netcommon.network_cli ansible_network_os: cisco.ios.ios ansible_user: developer ansible_password: C1sco12345

      ansible.netcommon.network_resource:
        name: "{{ item }}"
        state: gathered
      loop:
        - bgp_address_family
        - ospf_interfaces
        - ospfv2
        - ospfv3
      ignore_errors: true
      register: failing_module_info

    - name: Debug network_resource_info
      ansible.builtin.debug:
        var: failing_module_info

Expected Results

The first task in the playbook registers all the available modules for the device/host being targeted, with the subsequent task outputting them so we can see what's available.

The "Fetch config for working modules" task contains a partial list of the modules found to be available, which it runs through, as expected. The first 2 modules in the list work without issue and their outputs are collected. The last module "vlans" fails with an appropriate error message, which I have no real issue with (there are no vlans on the device, so this could be the cause).

However, the "Fetch config for failing modules" task contains the list of modules I've isolated down which cause the task to fail with a python based error, when targeting either 1 or all of them. This is the issue that is completely breaking things for me and I'd like help understanding and, if possible, fixing.
