Problem using nxos_command module

[Roger Gomez]

I have been trying to test the Cisco NXOS modules and the nxos_command is failing and I don't understand why:

cmd.yml
---

- hosts:

  - leaf-switch

  gather_facts: no

  tasks:

  - nxos_command:

     username: user

     password: password

     commands:

     - show version

     transport: nxapi

     use_ssl: no

     host: leaf-switch
    delegate_to: localhost

When I run the playbook I have this back:

PLAY ***************************************************************************

TASK [nxos_command] ************************************************************

fatal: [leaf-switch -> localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "msg": "HTTP Error 400: Bad Request", "status": 400, "url": "http://leaf-switch:80/ins"}

NO MORE HOSTS LEFT *************************************************************

to retry, use: --limit @com.retry

PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************

leaf-switch                : ok=0    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=1

The switch is enable for NXAPI and I can use it, if I only change the transport from nxapi to cli everything works just fine.

Any idea what could be the reason?

Thanks.

HI Roger,

Two questions:

1) Are you able to browse to http://leaf-switch:80/ins (assuming you have nxapi sandbox configured)?

2) What platform and nxos version are you running?

Thank you for helping me with this issue. I have responded inside your previous email.

 Yes, I'm able to browse and make REST API calls. 

2) What platform and nxos version are you running?

This test was in n9000-dk9.7.0.3.I1.2.bin but I also did it in on 6.1(2)I3(1).

Thanks for the additional details.  Its definitely a bug that affects the 9K (the nxapi implementation is a little different).  Working on a fix that will be available soon

Thanks.
