superreader Cannot Set CLI Parameters in Panorama

[cosx]

I recently upgraded Panorama to 6.1.1 from 5.0.11. When I did so, RANCID was no longer able to log into Panorama and do its configuration tracking.

I tracked down the problem to a superreader not being able to issue the "set cli pager off" command. This worked in 5.0.11. It still works on a firewall running 6.1.1, just not on Panorama. In 6.1.1 on Panorama, the "set" command is totally restricted. On a PA-4060, I get what I expect, only the "set cli" and "set password" commands are available.

I can temporarily give the account RANCID uses superuser permissions, but there isn't a reason this account needs write permissions.

Am I the only one having this problem? Something about my Panorama setup? Or can other reproduce this? Any idea at which version this was broken?

This looks like function is broken in 6.1.1. Please open a case with support to file a bug if you like.

I ran across some commands not working in 6.1.1 panorama.

For the record, I did go to PAN support with this. They provided a patched version of Panorama, 6.1.2-h1, with the fix. I assume that the fix will be present in future releases.
