[osx] Fix errors when AZ feature flag is disabled

[jimporter]

Description

This PR improves error messages and fixes an issue with restoring the saved subnet information when the AZ feature flag is disabled. It should fix the CLI tests on macOS; they were working on Linux (surprisingly), but that's likely due to some timing differences.

Testing

Run the unit and CLI tests on macOS to verify the fix.
