Panorama slowness when monitoring traffic

Hi support,

Panorama is facing slowness when monitoring traffic. What can be checked from the TSF file? There is no changes on the panorama itself.

Thank you for the post @Oblagonte

Could you please elaborate more on this issue? Do you mean that traffic log query is slow?

Could you please give more details regarding your Panorama model (VM or Physical Appliance) and deployment mode (Local Log Collector or Dedicated Log Collector)?

When this issue is happening, could you get an output from Panorama from: " show system resources"?

Thank you

Pavel

Hi PavelK,

Yes, when filter has been set most of the time nothing happen and it will take time to come out only after click enter again. Sometime, when we want to export the traffic output, can see the log on the screen but nothing in export. When tried on the same filter set on the passive Panorama, the export come with the logs.

Panorama model is M-200 and how can we check our deployment mode?

Below is some of the log :-

Thank you for reply @Oblagonte

Based on your description there might be an issue with log collector on your active Panorama node.

Could you please confirm from CLI when you experience the issue the status of Elastic Search: show log-collector-es-cluster health

Could you also confirm from CLI incoming log rate: show log-collector detail

Please also check whether you see any crash files: show system files

What is PAN-OS version of Panorama?

Thank you

Pavel

@PavelK mentiones check this and the disks (depending if the panorama is also the log collector):
