RSA Version/Condition: All
Issue
When attempting to import a MetaData Export file, the following error may be received. 
Import Failed: 
No such field com.aveksa.server.export.FileManifest.patches 
---- Debugging information ---- 
field : patches 
class : com.aveksa.server.export.FileManifest 
required-type : com.aveksa.server.export.FileManifest 
converter-type : com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.ReflectionConverter 
line number : 6 
version : null 
-------------------------------

NOTE: The message may appear all on one line.

Cause
The version of RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle is lower than the metadata version.  For example, if attempting to import metadata with the following header information (7.0.2 P05) into a 7.0.2 GA system the error will occur: 
<AveksaMetadataFile>
  <FileManifest>
    <exportDate>2018-05-07 12:12:23.763 UTC</exportDate>
    <systemVersion>7.0.2</systemVersion>
    <buildNumber>143095</buildNumber>
    <patches>P05</patches>
    <userName>AveksaAdmin</userName>
Resolution
Upgrade the RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle software to the same or higher version of the metadata.
Notes

Do not attempt to edit the metadata file and change the version, and then import, as this may corrupt your implementation of RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle.
