Supported events and incidents
Supported Cisco APIC objects and attributes:
Entuity collects metrics on the following Cisco APIC objects and their attributes.
- 100% health = healthy.
- 0% health = unhealthy.
Cisco advises that if health drops below 90%, then there is a problem. Therefore, Entuity sets 90% as the default health threshold. When a metric's health drops below 90%, Entuity generates an event on that metric.
For the APIC CPU and APIC Memory metrics, Entuity also uses a percentage, but the are not based on health. Instead, they are based on usage:
- 100% usage = unhealthy.
Please refer to this article for further information on APIC health.
