"enabled_blades" command output shows an error or incorrect output

Product: Security Gateways
Version: R80.40 (EOS), R81 (EOS), R81.10 (EOS), R81.20
Last Modified: 2025-06-23

Symptoms

• When you run the "enabled_blades" command from two SSH sessions or two SNMP monitoring systems, you receive an error or an incorrect output, for example:

cat: /tmp/bladesStatus/blades_list: No such file or directory

cat: /tmp/bladesStatus/blades_list: No such file or directory

cat: /tmp/bladesStatus/blades_list: No such file or directory

sed: can't read /tmp/bladesStatus/local_obj: No such file or directory

Example of an incorrect output for a Security Gateway that only has the Firewall blade enabled:

[Expert@Gaia:0]# enabled_blades

fw appi ips mon

Cause

In a rare scenario, when the "enabled_blades" command is executed on two sessions simultaneously, the file /tmp/bladesStatus is deleted.
