Viewing and Tracking Outages

When you provision services on nodes, Network Monitoring tracks these services by polling them and creating outages if services do not respond to polls. Using the Outages page, you can view the outage information for a single outage, view current outages, or view both current and resolved outages.

To view a list of outages and information about outages:

On the Junos Space Network Management Platform UI, select Network Monitoring > Outages.

The Outages page appears.
(Optional) To view detailed information about an outage:
1. In the Outage ID text box, enter the ID of the outage.
2. Click Get Details or press Enter.
  - If the outage ID that you entered matches an existing outage, the subsequent page displays information about the outage. For more information, refer to Viewing Details about an Outage.
  - If the outage ID that you entered does not match an existing outage, the subsequent page displays a message to this effect. You can reenter an outage ID or view a list of the current outages.
(Optional) To view the list of the current outages, click the Current Outages link.

The Outages (List) page appears displaying the list of current outages in a table. For more information, refer to Viewing the List of Outages.
(Optional) To view the list of all (resolved and current) outages, click the All Outages link.

The Outages (List) page appears displaying the list of all outages in a table. For more information, refer to Viewing the List of Outages.

The outages are sorted based on the column that you clicked.
(Optional) To filter outages based on different constraints:
- Based on foreign source, node, or interface, click the plus (+) icon to view outages only for the corresponding parameter or click the minus (–) icon to exclude outages for the corresponding parameter.
- Based on the date and time when the service outage occurred, click the back arrow icon to view outages that occurred after the corresponding date and time or click the forward arrow icon to view outages that began before the corresponding date and time.
