ansible panos_dag_tags causes Panorama to crash.

[sgardne]

Hi PA devops! I'm trying to automate adding addresses and then adding tags to them. The first part succeeds but the second part causes Panorama to become unresponsive. I am wondering if I'm doing something dumb, or if this is a bug? I'm on Panorama v7.1.6. Here's my playbook:

- name: Get input from user
  hosts: panorama
  connection: local
  vars_prompt:
    - name: "pan_user"
      prompt: "Panorama Username"
      private: no
    - name: "pan_pass"
      prompt: "Panorama Password"
      private: yes
    - name: "new_address_cidr"
      prompt: "Address in CIDR notation"
      private: no
    - name: "new_address_tag"
      prompt: "Address Tag: (webserver, linux, windows, rdp, ssh)"
      private: no
    - name: "addr_name"
      prompt: "Friendly name for the address"
      private: no

  roles:
    - role: PaloAltoNetworks.paloaltonetworks

  tasks:
    - name: Create address object
      panos_object:
        ip_address: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
        username: "{{ pan_user }}"
        password: "{{ pan_pass }}"
        address_type: "ip-netmask"
        devicegroup: "PA-5000s"
        operation: "add"
        address: "{{ new_address_cidr }}"
        description: "{{ addr_name }}"
        addressobject: "{{ addr_name }}"
      ignore_errors: yes #Will fail if it already exists.
      register: add_result

    - name: commit change
      when: add_result|succeeded
      panos_commit:
        ip_address: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
        username: "{{ pan_user }}"
        password: "{{ pan_pass }}"
        devicegroup: "PA-5000s"

    - name: Create the tags to map IP addresses
      panos_dag_tags:
        ip_address: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
        username: "{{ pan_user }}"
        password: "{{ pan_pass }}"
        ip_to_register: "{{ new_address_cidr }}"
        tag_names: "{{ new_address_tag }}"
        operation: 'add'
      tags: "add-dagip"

And here's the ansible-playbook output. :

It looks to me like the web service is crashing and restarting, but I'm not sure. Anyone have any insight here? Thanks!

I believe user-id on Panorama wasn't supported until...  8.0..?  9.0...?  I know for sure that 7.1 is too early.  Just need to upgrade your Panorama a bit.
