Management Only mode allows the Panorama virtual
appliance to operate strictly as a Panorama management server without
local log collection capabilities. By default, the Panorama virtual
appliance is in Panorama mode for the initial deployment. It is recommended
to change the Panorama virtual appliance to Management Only immediately
after the initial deployment because changing to Management Only mode
requires that there are no logs being forwarded to the Panorama
management server because the Panorama virtual appliance in Management
Only mode does not support log collection. After you change to Management
Only mode, any existing log data stored on the Panorama virtual
appliance becomes inaccessible, and the ACC and reporting features
cannot query the logs stored on the Panorama virtual appliance.
If you configured a local Log Collector, the local Log Collector still exists on Panorama when
you change to Management Only mode despite having no log collection
capabilities. Deleting the local Log Collector () deletes the Eth1/1 interface configuration the local Log
Collector uses by default. If you decide to delete the local Log Collector, you
must
reconfigure the Eth1/1
interface.
