Hi Moritz, Thank you for getting back to me. I will verify the version we have today, but I have a suspicion it’s v3.2.2, which would explain the issue. I will work to have the latest version installed and see if that resolves things. I will keep you updated and will post the cli output if it remains unresolved after the upgrade.
