I'm trying to push a simple configuration of shutting down an interface on IOS XR 6.2.2 using YANG model xmlns="http://cisco.com/ns/yang/Cisco-IOS-XR-ifmgr-cfg.
Tried a lot with different options but unable to identify the reason why it isn't working. No luck in reading across many blogs/websites as well.
XML rpc-request data:
config_interface = """
<config>
<interface-configurations xmlns="http://cisco.com/ns/yang/Cisco-IOS-XR-ifmgr-cfg">
<interface-configuration>
<active>act</active>
<interface-name>TenGigE10633/0/0/1</interface-name>
<shutdown/>
</interface-configuration>
</interface-configurations>
</config>
"""
after sending above to IOS-XR node, the rpc-reply comes back as-
OrderedDict([('rpc-reply', OrderedDict([('@message-id', 'urn:uuid:19d93944-b71d-471b-a3e1-a8fbe09fde2c'), ('@xmlns:nc', 'urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0'), ('@xmlns', 'urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0'), ('ok', None)]))])
In the IOS XR debugs I see below:

The python code to do this is -

import xmltodict
from ncclient import manager
from pprint import pprint
m = manager.connect(host = '172.18.120.144', username = 'root', password = 'root', hostkey_verify = False, port = 830)
print('NETCONF session is connected : '+ str(m.connected))
config_interface = """

<shutdown/>
</interface-configuration>
</interface-configurations>
</config>
"""
rpc_reply = m.edit_config(config_interface, target = 'candidate')
output_dictn = xmltodict.parse(rpc_reply.xml)
print(output_dictn)
m.close_session()
print('NETCONF session status : ' + str(m.connected))
rpc-reply is coming ok, but configuration is not getting applied on the router.
Can someone please guide as to what can be wrong here ?.
Just to give a glimpse of the YANG model-
