## Symptoms

- * The users are unable to provision new gateways in their environment, using API or as part of autoprovisioning.
* CPM shows these errors: `
  2021-01-24 11:39:56,769 CME_SERVICE DEBUG Executing add-simple-gateway management API command with body
  ` 2021-01-24 11:39:59,955 CME_SERVICE INFO The response body is: { "code": "generic_error", "message": "Validation failed with 4 blocking-errors", "blocking-errors": [ { "message": "The object specified in 'Always send alerts to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade" }, { "message": "The object specified in 'Always send logs to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade" }, { "message": "The object specified in 'Always send logs to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade" }, { "message": "The object specified in 'Always send alerts to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade" } ] }
* `# mgmt_cli add-simple-gateway` command fails with the similar error message:

  ```
  
  code: "err_validation_failed"
  message: "Validation failed with 4 blocking-errors"
  blocking-errors:
  
  message: "The object specified in 'Always send alerts to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade"
  message: "The object specified in 'Always send logs to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade"
  message: "The object specified in 'Always send alerts to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade"
  message: "The object specified in 'Always send logs to' field, has no active 'Logging & Status' blade"
  Executed command failed. Changes are discarded.
  ```

## Cause

The user's environment contains a Multi-Domain Server and a Multi-Domain Log Server, and only the Multi-Domain Log Server is the log server.  
The "*add-simple-gateway*" command tries to create a gateway using the current Domain Management Server as a log server, and fails because this Domain Management Server does not have the "Logging and Monitoring" blade enabled.
