Cisco ACI plug-in Synchronize Error

Gun-Slinger — Fri, 13 Dec 2019 18:36:43 GMT

We have completed the installation and integration of the Cisco ACI plug-in to our panorama environment. We have found that on 2 of the 3 APIC clusters we are tied into for 3 different fabrics we get the following error on synchronization.

'State of ACI fabric is currently changing, unable to retrieve tags. Will try again next iteration." My only thought is a resource issue? The 1 fabric that is successful is considerably smaller the the 2 that are failing.

Anyone else run into this and what was the resolution?

Thanks

@Gun-Slinger,

So the number of endpoints the ACI plugin can monitor depends on the memory allocated to Panorama. If you have 8GB you have a hard limit of 10,000; at 16GB you will be limited to 20,000.

@Gun-Slinger,

I think you'll actually still be limited to 16GB on your actual Panorama instance and still bound to that 20,000 endpoint limit. I would reach out to Support to verify though, because I'm having a hard time finding anything on it.

Thanks I have a TAC case opened and will update this thread once I have something.
