Alert/logging mechanism on ISE

[wanwa01]

Hi all,

We had deployed ISE boxes in the network and having 1 primary admin name ISE-01 , 1 primary monitoring name ISE-02 and 2 PSN nodes (name ISE-03 and ISE-04). The questions are :

1 . we are having backup failed on primary admin(ISE-01) and getting the alert from node ISE-02.  We checked physically and no issue with ISE-02 backup. The backup failed is happening on ISE-01. is this correct behavious we are getting the alert from 02?

2. Can we dig further why the backup is failed. It was working initally and suddenly it happened.

thanks.

Since ISE-02 is the primary monitoring node then this is expected to receive alerts from ISE-02 even though it is for ISE-01. ISE deployments have personas and the monitoring is centralized and forwarded to the primary MNT node.

thanks for update. last question is how big is the backup data? ( roughly) and if the disk is showing high, is there a way to what's taking up the space?

thx
