Patent attributes
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for handling failure scenarios during data collection and analysis for assurance. In some examples, a system can obtain a logical model of a network and, based on the logical model, identify a plurality of controllers on the network and a plurality of nodes on a fabric of the network. The system can probe the plurality of controllers and plurality of nodes for respective status information, including respective reachability information, respective login diagnostics information, and/or respective software information. Based on the respective status information, the system can determine conditions at the plurality of controllers and the plurality of nodes and define one or more assurance operations based on the conditions at the plurality of controllers and the plurality of nodes. The system can then perform the one or more assurance operations.
