Aria Automation 8.18 and Infoblox IPAM plugin for vRA

[evil242]

Hello and good evening, 

So I just upgraded to Aria Automation 8.18.  But the old infoblox ipam at plugin version 1.5 gives a python error module 'collections' has no attribute 'MutableMapping'. 

So I found the IB vRA IPAM Plug-in V 6.0.0 from Infoblox Downloads.  But now I get a new error when just trying to select the address space of default. 

 "Action run failed with the following error: "Workflow failed to complete: IPAM Provider Error: {\"code\":3000,\"message\":\"Check Logs for more information (Workflow:Create Endpoint Connection / Endpoint Properties (item29)#6)\"} (Dynamic Script Module name : throwIpamError#29)""

Does anyone have any tips for getting the correct infoblox ipam plugin and getting it to work with Aria Automation 8.18?

Yes, I found that.  Thank you, I should have shared the marketplace link.  New problem is it says

Action run failed with the following error: "Infoblox IPAM is misconfigured: infoblox_username and 
infoblox_password are incorrect."

I confirmed I can login as the user to infoblox gridmaster with the user and password.

I don't know if this could help but on our side, we are using local account on Infoblox appliance to log-in using the Aria Automation Infoblox Plugin.

We have been using a local account for a while.  Which version of Aria Automation, ipan plugin, and NIOS on the grid are you at?  What keys and values do you have defined on the integration?

Thank you for your tips, they are helpful

Found it thanks to BC Support

The following symptoms might be observed on Aria Automation 8.18.1 HA setups:
Deployments or data collection occasionally fail with "Error allocating in network or range: Infoblox IPAM is misconfigured: infoblox_username and infoblox_password are incorrect." or similar authorization issues, even though the username and password are valid.

Nice if you found a solution 😎

You need the IPAM Plugin v1.5.2 from the VMware Market place.
