download_configuration not transferring

Greetings,

 

 

I am having difficulty getting ITCMSystem.ConfigSync.download_configuration (v4.x iControl, Perl) to transfer the full ucs. Only 512 bytes are transferred, regardless of the size of the actual ucs. I've tried using download_file, with the same results. Scaling back chunk_size to 128, I can watch the progression up to 512, where it stops.

 

 

The targeted device is v4.6.4. I was only able to find one other topic referring to download_configuration for iControl v4.x, leaving me to believe that this is either not supported, or so incredibly simple that I should be embarassed for asking.

 

 

I've seen the v9.x examples, and have them working properly in my environment for those devices. Further, I have save_configuration working on the v4.6.4 devices.

 

 

I don't see any errors when I turn on SOAP::Lite + trace.

 

 

Thanks

    Can you post the section of your code that does the download? I just tested this code from the 4.6.3 SDK against my 4.6.2 machine which worked fine.

     

     

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 sub downloadConfiguration
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
sub downloadConfiguration()
{
  my ($configName, $localFile, $quiet) = (@_);
  $success = 0;
  if ( "" eq $localFile )
  {
    $localFile = $configName;
  }
  if ( "" eq $configName )
  {
    &usage("download");
  }
  open (LOCAL_FILE, ">$localFile") or die("Can't open $localFile for output: $!");
  binmode(LOCAL_FILE);
  my $file_offset = 0;
  my $chunk_size = $defaultChunkSize;
  my $chain_type = 0;
  my $bContinue = 1;
  while ( 1 == $bContinue )
  {
    $soap_response = $ConfigSync->download_configuration
    (
      SOAP::Data->name(config_name => $configName),
      SOAP::Data->name(chunk_size => $chunk_size),
      SOAP::Data->name(file_offset => $file_offset)
    );
    if ( $soap_response->fault )
    {
      if ( 1 != $quiet )
      {
        print $soap_response->faultcode, " ", $soap_response->faultstring, "\n";
      }
      $bContinue = 0;
    }
    else
    {
      $file_offset = $soap_response->result;
      @params = $soap_response->paramsout;
      $file_data = @params[0];
      $chain_type = @params[1];
       Append Data to File
      print LOCAL_FILE $file_data;
      if ( 1 != $quiet )
      {
        print "\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\bBytes Transferred: $file_offset";
      }
      if ( ("FILE_LAST" eq $FileChainType->{$chain_type}) or
           ("FILE_FIRST_AND_LAST" eq $FileChainType->{$chain_type}) )
      {
        $bContinue = 0;
        $success = 1;
      }
    }
  }
  print "\n";
  close(LOCAL_FILE);
  return $success;
}
