Tracking the Status of VSX Objects

Note - In Security Groups in (Undefined variable: Vars_ScalablePlatforms.tp_maestro) and (Undefined variable: Vars_ScalablePlatforms.tp_scalable_chassis):

  • The term VSX Gateway means a Security Group in the VSX mode.

  • Some VSX features have a limited or no support.

Use the SmartConsole Logs & Monitor features to show the status of all Security Gateways, VSX Gateways and other Virtual Devices.

The Overall status of a Virtual Device is the most serious status of its Software Blades.

For example, if all the Software Blades statuses are OK except for the SmartEvent blade, which has a Problem status, then the Overall status will be Problem.
