Issue<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When updating a Device from the NSM the Job Information dialog shows as successful. The Device Status shows as “In Sync” but the device does not show the new configuration, and an additional Delta Config Summerization shows that the NSM configuration is different to that of the device.<\/p>\n

Cause<\/strong><\/h2>\n

ScreenOS has a source\/destination object limit per policy. Due to the NSM not “screening” the number of objects that are added to the policy via the GUI when the NSM updates the device, the NSM believes that the update has been successful and reports so via the Job Info dialog log.
In addition to this when trying to add the commands to the device itself via the CLI you may see the following<\/p>\n

netscreen-SSG350(policy:18)-> set dst-address grp-servers
    Group: Too many entries
    Failed command - set group address \"Untrust\" \"hosta\" add \"grp-servers\"
    Set address failed
    Policy: can't be modified
    Failed command - set dst-address grp-servers<\/pre>\n

Due to this you will not see the commands executed via the NSM (sme_bulkcli) from the output of the Devices “get event” command.<\/p>\n

Solution<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can either :<\/p>\n

    * Create another policy to allow you to add more objects to either the source or destination.
    * Reduce the number of objects in either the source or destination field.<\/p>\n
