East Interconnect migration complete, and another RMA replacement

The Palo Alto 5200 series has four disk drives, one pair are SSDs and are used for the system OS, the other pair are mechanical are used for local log storage. We had issues with the syslog drives of one of our bcdc1-dept-pa units soon after it was initially deployed. Palo Alto send us replacement disks, but a month later we were getting errors again. Palo Alto RMAed the chassis. This is the second chassis we have had to replace, which is a pain, but it’s nice that the vendor is pretty proactive about RMAing the hardware, which isn’t cheap. Here’s hoping that’s our last one.

East Interconnect was also migrated this morning with no major issues. Phase One is nearly complete!
