Symptom
- "Export or push device config bundle" step of the Panorama onboarding process is executed.
- The commit now fails with the following error message:
Config bundle is too large to be exported to device <serial number>. Disable share-unused-objects flag to reduce configuration size.
Environment
- Panorama managed Firewalls
- Supported PAN-OS
- Dynamic updates are not installed on the firewall
Cause
- Dynamic updates are not installed on the firewall before importing the configuration to Panorama.
- This causes extra information to be added in the configuration, Thereby increasing the size of configuration beyond the supported values.
Resolution
- Install the dynamic updates on the firewall.
- Push the config bundle from the Panorama to Firewall again.
