Error with Security Essentials

Have just done a fresh install of Splunk 9.3.0 with Security Essentials.

I'm getting the following message

Error in 'sseidenrichment' command: (AttributeError) module 'time' has no attribute 'clock'

Can you help?

This should be higher up. Correct solution.

We're seeing a similar issue with ES7.3.1 running on Core 9.3.0.  
The spathannotates custom command is failing with the same "module 'time' has no attribute 'clock'" error and, like @cbrewer_splunk, I traced it back to  ./SA-Utils/lib/SolnCommon/cexe.py

We'll upgrade to ES7.3.2 (latest version at this point) but I'm not convinced that the issue will be fixed based on the Fixed Issues for ES7.3.2 - https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ES/7.3.2/RN/FixedIssues

I hade the same issue. 
For me upgrading to Es7.3.2 did solve the issue.

I searched around and changed:
vi /opt/splunk/etc/apps/SA-Utils/lib/SolnCommon/cexe.py
Change time.clock to time.time
