Failed to install licenses. Model incompatible : feature model is VM while the device model is VMFLEX

L3 Networker

Dear team,

 

Hello

 

When a customer registers a VM firewall license, the following error message is displayed.

 

Anyone else seeing these issues?  please let me know how to fix it.

Sure not using a deployment profile for 10.0.4 or higher and using auth for older PAN-OS?

What version of PAN-OS are your deploying on?

Where are you deploying PAVM?

 

@dmaynard 

The OS version is 9.1.0-h3.

I've searched related known issues, but couldn't find a match.

And the firewall is installed in azure.

Deploying from custom image or marketplace?

 

May have old product code if using custom image and needs to be updated.

1. Deploying from custom image or marketplace?

2. May have old product code if using custom image and needs to be updated.

@dmaynard 

Thank you for your commnet

According to your comments, that model seems to be still supported as well. But can you tell me why this error is occurring?
