Known Issues and Workarounds

Known Issues and Workarounds

  • Issue #48414: You must ensure that the relations that you are adding while configuring co-relationships between modules are correct. FortiSOAR does not prevent the creation of incorrect relationships between modules. Therefore, you must ensure that you add correct bidirectional relationships for both the modules for which you want to define the relationship. For example, if you define a Many to One relationship on the Alerts module for the Events Module, then in the Events module you must define a "One to Many" relationship for the Alerts module.
  • Issue #56957: If you select both the Row Expandable and Enable Horizontal Scrolling in the grid view template and if in the grid view of the module you expand a record, then, in this case, the UI of the records following the expanded row might get scattered.
    This issue will be resolved in future releases of FortiSOAR.
  • Issue #58653: When you stop a schedule the value, i.e., the DateTime of the Last Run At field becomes blank.
    This issue will be resolved in future releases of FortiSOAR.
  • Issue #61040: The csadm db --externalize command fails with a "Failed to drop database <name of database>" error in case the FortiSOAR database is present on an external PostgreSQL server.
    This issue occurs if there is a stale connection present to the FortiSOAR database on the external PostgreSQL server. To resolve this issue and release all stale connections, restart the Postgres service using the following command:
    systemctl start postgresql-<postgresql version>
    For example, systemctl start postgresql-12
  • Issue #79682: Custom expressions that you have added to Dynamic Values throw errors when you try to use those expressions.
    To resolve this issue, restart the celeryd service using the following command:
    # systemctl restart celeryd
  • Issue #0665610: In an MSSP setup, after you perform leave cluster for a secondary/active node and then again join back that secondary/active node to the HA cluster, the alias for new playbooks, i.e., playbooks marked as "Remote Executable" do not get displayed in the Remote Tenant Manager > Manage Playbook Mappings page on the master node.
    To resolve this issue, restart the cyops-postman service on both the primary and the secondary nodes using the following command:
    # systemctl restart cyops-postman
  • Issue #0665614: In a High Availability (HA) setup, after you perform leave cluster for a secondary/active node and then again join back that secondary/active node to the HA cluster, you cannot install connectors on the agent.
    To resolve this issue, restart the cyops-integrations-agent and cyops-postman services on the primary node.
  • Issue #0678796: If the version of your Report Engine connector is prior to 1.0.2, the "Export Report" system playbook (Settings > System Fixtures > Report Management Playbooks) did not have the timezone parameter, so if after upgrading the Report Engine to the latest version (1.2.0), even then the report does not get exported based on the selected timezone.
    To resolve this issue, and export the report based on the selected timezone, do the following:
    1. Navigate to Settings > System Fixtures > Report Management Playbooks.
    2. Open the Export Report Playbook.
    3. Open the Generate Report from Report ID step from which copy the values of the Report ID and Report Params fields.
    4. Delete the Generate Report from Report ID step.
    5. Add a "Connector" step and select the Report Engine v1.2.0 connector.
    6. Select the Generate Report From Report ID action.
    7. Paste the values of the Report ID and Report Params fields that you had copied in step 3.
    8. Save the playbook and export the report as PDF.
      Now, the report gets exported based on the selected timezone.
  • Issue #0684636: FortiSOAR license deployment sometimes fails when FortiManager (FMG) acts as an intermediary between the FortiSOAR instance and the FortiGuard Distribution Network (FDN) server. This issue occurred due to an occasional delay in syncing entitlements to the FMG server.
    To resolve this issue, you need to install FortiSOAR Maintenance Pack 1. For more information on Maintenance Packs, see the FortiSOAR Documentation Library.
  • Issue #0685174: File operations such as creating a file that you want to reuse in a subsequent playbook step are not working as expected on a tenant or regional SOC systems that have enabled its remote connector management.
    To resolve this issue, you need to install FortiSOAR Maintenance Pack 1. For more information on Maintenance Packs, see the FortiSOAR Documentation Library.
  • Issue #0686254: DNS resolution issue with the Amazon Web Service (AWS) 6.4.4AMI for Enterprise and Secure Message Exchange. Due to an error with the network service, nameservers were not correctly applied to the FortiSOAR VM and its initial bootstrapping wizard failed to complete.
    To resolve this issue, you need to install FortiSOAR Maintenance Pack 1. For more information on Maintenance Packs, see the FortiSOAR Documentation Library.
  • Issue #0686557: Intermittent issue that caused the failure of playbooks and direct connector actions.
    To resolve this issue, you need to manually restart the uwsgi and cyops-integrations-agent services. You can also resolve this issue by installing FortiSOAR Maintenance Pack 1. For more information on Maintenance Packs, see the FortiSOAR Documentation Library.
