After the integration is set up, operations can be performed using the
CloudBlade panel. These operations have various effects on the tunnels and
configurations in Prisma SD-WAN, the Panorama and Cloud Managed CloudBlades, and Prisma Access.
- Set the CloudBlade to Enabled
This is the standard, expected mode of
operation for the CloudBlade. The CloudBlade will run, find any new Sites and
Interfaces with the appropriate tags, and configure the integration on
CloudBlades and Prisma Access.
- Set the CloudBlade to Paused
Pausing the CloudBlade stops all future
integration runs, but leaves any created objects intact. This stops any future
objects from getting created, and also prevents removal of any unconfigured and
untagged objects.
When performing a reboot or any maintenance activity,
it's recommended to pause the CloudBlade.
- Set the CloudBlade to Disabled
Disabling the CloudBlade tells the system to
remove and delete all configurations created by the CloudBlade. This can cause
communication interruptions if the policy isn't set to use other paths. Note
that IPsec policies, IKE policies, and Prisma SD-WAN Endpoints
and Service and DC groups are not automatically deleted and must be removed
manually.
- Uninstall the CloudBlade
Uninstalling the CloudBlade removes the
configuration for the CloudBlade and immediately stops any changes by the
CloudBlade. Uninstalling the CloudBlade does not automatically remove
configuration from all sites and objects. CloudBlades can be uninstalled and
reinstalled to facilitate upgrades or downgrades to different versions without
traffic interruption. To completely remove all items, set the CloudBlade to
Disabled for 2-3 Integration Run periods before uninstalling the
CloudBlade.
