is possible to mask some faults raised in ACI dashboard?

[FedeSaraullo]

Hello team! Is there any way to mask faults in ACI? Some of them are the following:

F0532 port down
F0135 disruptive external operation in EPG
F1296 VPC down

Thanks in advance!

Sorry for the delay! That link is so useful.

Was anyone able to squelch F1296?

I was not able to find the correct monitoring object. fltVpcIfIfDown should be under the physical object ethpm, where you can find F0532. Trying to find the correct one, I checked most of the other objects to find code F1296.

Hello Andrés! Tac recommended it for me, to find any MO:
However you may find useful to suppress any fault code by following:

• Click on Fabric
• Click on Access Policies
• Click on Monitoring Policies
• Actions > Create Monitoring Policies
• Create a New Policy to align ports getting decommissioned, not ideal to squelch this globally as your port down notifications globally would be broken.
• Select Fault Severity Assignment Policies
• Click on Edit button
• Look up for MO based on dn ( e.g. comp.EpPD, l1.PhysIf, vmm.RsCtrlrPMonPol, etc).
• Submit
• Click on Monitoring Object
• For example select Physical Interface Runtime State (ethpm) (ethpm.PhysIf)
• Click Create
• Common Decomission Squelch
• Select Codes as
• F0546 [fltEthpmIfPortDownNoInfra] , F0532 [fltEthpmIfPortDownInfraEpg], F0543 [fltEthpmIfPortDownInfraNoEpg]
• Select Initial Severity as Squelched
• Select Initial Severity as Inherit
• Click Update

For those looking for F1296, it is under the "Fabric Policies" monitoring policy. The monitoring object you need to select is "VPC Interface (vpc.if)". Then you will have the option to squelch F1296.
