Python Packages for Integration

IAG (2023.2.0 - 2023.2.6)

Effective in the 2023.2.0 - 2023.2.6 releases, IAG will no longer install Python packages for the following optional integrations:

• GRPC
• Hashicorp Vault
• LDAP
• Netconf
• Netmiko
• Nornir

What does this mean for customers?

For new installs of IAG, if one of the above optional integrations is enabled and a user has not installed the proper package, the server will not start and will present the user with an Uninstalled Options Error. Enabling the integrations will require the user to install the packages within the Virtual Environment (VENV) that IAG is running in.

IAG (2023.2.7)

Starting with the 2023.2.7 release, Python packages are included and IAG will automatically install the necessary Python packages for:

• GRPC
• Hashicorp Vault
• LDAP
• Netconf
• Netmiko
• Nornir
• Ansible

Refer to Python Packages for Integration in the RHEL 8 Full Installation Method.
