Monitor Connector Status
Overview
You can monitor the status of Connectors installed for Network-Level and Application-Level access to identify disconnected Connectors and resolve the connection issue.
The status includes:
-
Overall connection status of the Connectors in a site or the connection status of each Connector in the site.
-
Number of live Connectors in the site.
-
Traffic (in bytes) that passes through the site.
-
Connector state.
-
Network throughput in bits per second.
-
Percentage of the CPU utilized by the machine and the Connector installed on the machine.
-
Percentage of the memory utilized by the machine and the Connector installed on the machine.
Connection Status
The Connector connection status can be Full, Partial, or None.
Connection Status |
Description |
---|---|
Full |
All the Connectors in the site are connected to all the gateways (Network-Level access Access to your corporate resources in the network.) and Check Point cloud An administrator approved Harmony Connect cloud location that processes the internet and corporate traffic. (Application-Level access Clientless access to specific corporate applications, such as web, SSH, RDP, tunnel, and database applications.). For example:
|
Partial |
Connectors in the site are not connected to some gateways (Network-Level access). For example:
|
None |
Connectors in the site are not connected to any gateway (Network-Level access) and Check Point cloud (Application-Level access). For example:

Prerequisite
-
Connector version:
-
7.3.1 for Application-Level access. To upgrade the Connector, see Appendix B - Upgrading the Connector (Application Access).
-
1.3.1 for Network-Level access.To upgrade the Connector, see How to upgrade the Connector image in sk174504.

Generate a new token and run it on the target machine:
-
For Network-Level access, see Installing the Connector for Network-Level Access
-
For Application-Level access, see Setting up an Application Site.
-
-
Make sure that the Connector can access these URLs and IP addresses based on your site location on port 443:

Monitoring a Connector Status
To monitor a Connector status:
-
Click Logs & Events > Monitors > Connectors.
A dashboard appears that shows the overall connection status of the Connectors in all the configured sites.
Note - To view the overall connection status of all the Connectors in specific sites, select the sites from the site list.
-
To view the status of all the Connectors in a site, click the connection status for the site. For example, click Full, Partial, or None.
A dashboard appears that shows:
-
Site Connectivity Status - Overall connection status of the Connectors in the site.
-
Live Connectors - Number of live connectors in the site.
-
Site Traffic Per Day - Traffic (in bytes) that passes though the site.
-
Site Connectors State - Connection state of each connector It is a lightweight Docker container that provides a secure tunnel between your data center and the Harmony Connect cloud.. Each Connector is indicated by the Connector ID. For example, 9934b9cc2a8b.
-
Network Throughput - Network throughput on the site.
-
CPU Busy - Percentage of the CPU utilized by the machine and the Connector installed on the machine, indicated by <Connector ID> - total and Connector ID - Odo Connector Process, respectively. For example, 9934b9cc2a8b -total and 9934b9cc2a8b - Odo Connector Process.
-
Memory Busy - Percentage of the memory utilized by the machine and the Connector installed on the machine, indicated by <Connector ID> - total and Connector ID - Odo Connector Process, respectively. For example, 9934b9cc2a8b -total and 9934b9cc2a8b - Odo Connector Process.
