CE00610016 ObjectBackupSlaViolated

The SLA for the backup of an object is violated.

The alert can be triggered when the load on the Cohesity DataProtect as a Service is higher than anticipated, or the primary source is loaded, and the Cohesity DataProtect as a Service cannot back it up fast enough.

Verify if a new workload is recently added to the Cohesity cluster or if the primary source is throttling Cohesity APIs/calls.

The alert is raised after the Cohesity cluster is upgraded from a 4.x release to a 5.x release and the cluster detects that some policy settings used in the current policies on the cluster have been deprecated.

CE00610005 ProtectedObjectFailed

The backup of an object that is part of a protection run failed with an error.

The alert is raised when the Cohesity cluster detects that an object (such as a VM) failed to be backed up during a Protection Run. One alert is raised for each object (such as a VM) that failed to be backed up. For instructions on how to enable this alert, contact Cohesity Support. A protection run can fail to back up an object for the following reasons:

  • There is an issue with the primary environment, such as a removed VM or a Snapshot failure.
  • The primary storage is full. (The primary storage contains the objects backed up by the Cohesity cluster.)
  • The Cohesity Agent is unreachable while attempting to back up physical servers.

See the CE00610005 | BackupRestore - BackupObjectFailed KB article for a resolution.

CE00610009 ProtectedObjectSlaViolated

The service level agreement violation (SLA) of an object in the protection run was violated.

The alert is triggered when the service level agreement violation (SLA) occurs for an individual object in a Protection run. A Protection run may take longer than the specified SLA for the following reasons:

  • If the primary storage is slow.
  • The network is slow.
  • You specified SLA that is too short.

Investigate why the Protection run took longer than the specified SLA. If appropriate, adjust the time period specified in the SLA.

CE00610027 ObjectDeletionRejected

A protection run was modified.
