Anyone else seen these "Load Config Partial" syntax changes in PAN-OS 9.0???

GregTaylor — Mon, 20 May 2019 16:29:58 GMT

Doing my first migration to PAN-OS 9.0. We've migrated the config using expedition, but when I try to use the load config partial commands I keep getting a "Invalid syntax." error

Example on how it used to work-

load config partial from MT-fixed.xml from-xpath /config/devices/entry/vsys/entry/tag to-xpath /config/devices/entry/vsys/entry/tag mode merge

I can get it to work if I change the syntax slightly to -

load config partial mode merge from-xpath /config/devices/entry/vsys/entry/tag to-xpath /config/devices/entry/vsys/entry/tag from MT-fixed.xml

I'm just curious if anyone else has run into this issue? I can't find any documentation around changes to the load config partial in PAN-OS 9.0 so I can't explain why it has suddenly changed its behavior.

I would recommend you post this question to the PanOS live forum as this is unrelated to Expedition.

This was a documented change with PAN-OS 9.0 : https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/9-0/pan-os-cli-quick-start/use-the-cli/load-configurations/load-a-partial-configuration.html
