In the UI:

A defect in code where the payload size exceeds the limit.

Engineering is aware of the issue and is working on a fix.

Workaround:

1. Verify config auditing is enabled:

powerscale-3# isi audit settings global view
     Protocol Auditing Enabled: Yes
                 Audited Zones: -
               CEE Server URIs: 
                      Hostname: 
       Config Auditing Enabled: Yes  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
         Config Syslog Enabled: No
         Config Syslog Servers: -
     Config Syslog TLS Enabled: No
  Config Syslog Certificate ID: 
       Protocol Syslog Servers: -
   Protocol Syslog TLS Enabled: No
Protocol Syslog Certificate ID: 
         System Syslog Enabled: No
         System Syslog Servers: -
     System Syslog TLS Enabled: No
  System Syslog Certificate ID: 
          Auto Purging Enabled: No
              Retention Period: 180
       System Auditing Enabled: No
powerscale-3# 

2. Set config auditing to disabled temporarily:

powerscale-3# isi audit settings global modify --config-auditing-enabled=false

3. Re-apply the license, and then enable it:

powerscale-3# isi audit settings global modify --config-auditing-enabled=true
