Symptom


Slowness in Panorama GUI.

Environment


  • Any Panorama.
  • PAN-OS 9.1 and above.


Resolution


Details

If you're experiencing slowness with the Panorama GUI, the first area to look at is the underlying configuration of VMware. The VM host requires a high-speed disk and fast CPUs, preferably on dedicated hardware to ensure that other images aren’t consuming the CPU or I/O channel. Examining the VMware statistics will help determine if any particular resource is being maxed out (disk I/O, Processor, memory, and so on).

 

Note: A minimum of 4GB RAM and 4 processor cores is required for deployments with up to 10 managed firewalls. For more managed firewalls it is required to have 8 processor cores and 8GB to 16GB or RAM. Check here for more system requirements

 

Other factors that might cause GUI slowness:

  • Too many log messages being sent to the system. Use the command "debug log-collector log-collection-stats show incoming-logs " to check the logging rate if the panorama is in panorama mode acting as log-collector as well. You can skip this if the panorama is in management-only mode.
  • Changes being made while a report is running. Check the configuration logs of the panorama when the report is running.
  • More than one administrator committing changes at the same time. Check show jobs all to find the commit jobs running on the panorama.
  • Slowness of the user's computer, or a slow link to Panorama. You can try accessing Panorama from a different system or a host in the same subnet as the Panorama to figure out link or host issues.
