Environment

  • Python version: 3.6.9
  • NetBox version: 2.7.3

Steps to Reproduce

On a fresh install I do not see any initial data in the database and running python ./manage.py loaddata initial_data results in CommandError: No fixture named 'initial_data' found.

Expected Behavior

The import command runs fine and the basic prefixes RIRs etc are present in the db afterwards.

Observed Behavior

Was this moved to another method of import or just dropped? I found it quite useful. I've searched through the issue tracker and repo and can't find anything relevant.

It was removed as part of 85563e21db in v2.7 as it was no longer maintained.
