STEPS TO REPRODUCE

EXPECTED RESULTS

ACTUAL RESULTS

[feisacrabel]

This was supposed to be fixed in https://github.com/ansible-collections/cisco.nxos/issues/46

[srbharadwaj]

@feisacrabel i dont think this is related to #46 , this is specific to get_facts, its trying to run n7k related cmds (show vlan) which doesnt work on MDS, could you please run MDS modules without get_facts?

[feisacrabel]

@srbharadwaj do you have a gather facts for mds?

[srbharadwaj]

@feisacrabel not implemented for mds, we can keep this bug as a placeholder to implement it

[feisacrabel]

great, hopefully, this is straight forward. Happy to test. I'm migrating hundreds on roles to collections right now

[srbharadwaj]

@feisacrabel can you please give me the playbook u are using for recreating this issue?

[feisa]

This is what im runnning

• name: Gather Nxos Facts nxos_facts: gather_subset: all gather_network_resources: all register: false tags: nxos-gather-facts

[srbharadwaj]

This is a major enhancement, so considering it for future roadmap item.

[feisa]

its actually not, it works for the most part you just need to eliminate vlan collecting

[srbharadwaj]

Its slightly more complicated than that :)

[srbharadwaj]

@NilashishC this more like an enhancement or a feature request, so can you please add feature tag to this?

[NilashishC]

Fixed by #595
