ASA Failover Alert

Hi,

Now that we have Network Insight for ASA's, can you advise if there is anyway to generate alerts for ASA's failing over to the standby device?

Cheers,

Gavin

If you are running Orion version 12.2 or above you wil have AppInsight for ASA, which has 2 predefined alerts for ASA HA alerting:

* Failover on ASA Node

* High Availability on ASA node is not up

I've enabled this alert and I'm seeing them trigger for stale fail-over events - date/timestamps from February 2018 and other stale dates.

How does the fail-over alert work under the hood?

Thanks

I just made minor alterations to the built in ASA failover alert but we're not getting a failover to trigger. NPM 12.4

Alert Summary

Trigger Condition:

The actual trigger condition:
All child conditions must be satisfied (AND)
Last Failover has changed ( must happened more than 0 times )
All child conditions must be satisfied (AND)
Last Failover - New Last Failover - is greater than - Last Failover - Old Last Failover
ASA Node - High Availability Mode - is equal to - Active

Trigger Action:

Escalation Level 1

1. Write to NetPerfMon Event Log: Failover on Asa Node occured

2. Send an Email Alert

It originally failed over on 3/8 which prompted our networking team to ask me to enable the alert - which I did on 3/8 It failed over again on 3/16 and it didn't write to the event log or send the email alert. Is my trigger condition incorrect?
