VS(s) down-f5-all

Vendor: f5

OS: all

Description:
indeni will alert one or more virtual systems in a device is down.

Remediation Steps:
Review the cause for the virtual systems being down.

How does this work?
This script uses the F5 iControl REST API to retrieve the current status of vCMP guests.

Why is this important?
Keeping track of vCMP guest states will enable alerting for when a VM has failed.

Without Indeni how would you find this?
This metric is available by logging into the device with SSH, entering TMSH and executing “show vcmp guest”.
